On Monday Match Analysis, Gill Gross dissects Carlos Alcaraz's resounding 4-set win over Jannik Sinner in the 2025 US Open final. It's Alcaraz's 6th slam title and 2nd in New York. We'll start by examining the excellence of Alcaraz's summer, his tournament run and this performance in the final. Then we'll unpack the reasons why Alcaraz was able to do more damage on his serve and was more deadly from offensive positions than Sinner. We'll evaluate Sinner's performance in isolation. Lastly, we'll discuss the impact of the No. 1 ranking.
