The match was a tactical battle, with Alcaraz's powerful serve and forehand proving to be the deciding factors. His ability to vary the tempo and disrupt Sinner's rhythm kept his opponent on the back foot throughout the contest. Some spectators noted a short delay in the start of the match due to heightened security measures as former President Donald Trump was in attendance.

Alcaraz came out firing on all cylinders, showcasing a focused and determined approach. His aggressive forehand and deceptive shot selection put Sinner under immediate pressure. He demonstrated to the world that the only competition he has is himself, and when he is on his game he is a force to be reckoned with.
Sinner acknowledged Alcaraz's superior performance, admitting that his own play was too predictable. "I give lots of credit to him, because he handled the situation better than I did," said Sinner. "He raised his level when he had to."
A Budding Rivalry
This U.S. Open final marks the third consecutive Grand Slam final where Alcaraz and Sinner have faced each other within a single season, highlighting the emergence of a significant rivalry in the world of tennis. Alcaraz jokingly acknowledged this during the trophy ceremony, stating, "I’m seeing you more than my family!"
With this win, Alcaraz extends his head-to-head record against Sinner to 10-5. The tennis world eagerly anticipates their next encounter, as they are, without a doubt, the future of the sport.
