The Final of the French Open fell to an epic between two of the best sports athletes on Sunday – Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz.
In what turned out to be one of the most exciting competitions in sport this year, Alcaraz has returned to defeat Sinner 4-6, 6-7, 6-4, 7-6 (3), 7-6 (2).
It appeared that the sinner had the advantage at the start of the match. The sinner won the first set 6-4 and left with a 7-6 victory in set n ° 2. But the momentum that the Italian star built in the first two sets of the match seemed to be moving away while Alcaraz returned stronger each time Sinner tried to put it away.
Alcaraz took the third set, 6-4. Then Sinner had an advantage of 5-3 on Alcaraz in the fourth set, but the Spanish star widened deeply and exploited a different mentality. He returned to equalize the set with six games each, then forced an equality break in which he won 7-3.
Alcaraz won the first fifth set match after a shot that landed near the net on the side of Sinner. The whole momentum apparently changed in Alcaraz while he was taking and maintained the advance.
The sinner would not quietly go. Although he became frustrated in the middle of the whole, he showed the crowd to Roland Garros why he was the n ° 1 tennis player in the world. He struck an incredible blow near the net that Alcaraz could not reach. Alcaraz, despite the service, could not obtain the winner he needed. The sinner equalized the five games each each.
The sinner has deeply dug. Just when he could have abandoned his grip on the tournament, he was back. He took an advance of 6-5 after Alcaraz forced the match in Deuce. An incredible blow after an incredible blow and it was a sinner that had the advantage of what could be the decisive game.
Not so fast, Alcaraz essentially said. He forced the decisive equality break with an incredible loss of a reverse.
The crowd looked with a breath of breath while the two tennis players continued to hit the ball in both directions on the emblematic red clay. It took more than five hours to finally decide a winner.
Alcaraz has passed, winning the 10-2 equality break and winning the French Open title for the second consecutive year.
