Carlos Alcaraz becomes the youngest man to reach all four slam finals and can now become youngest to win all four. Carlos Alcaraz overcame cramps and injury to fend off Alexander Zverev in an epic, momentum-swinging five-setter to become the youngest man in the Open era to reach the finals of all four Grand Slam events. At 22, he's aiming to be the youngest man to complete a career Grand Slam.

It's as beautiful as his tennis, Alcaraz said of Federer's golf swing. I'm not surprised. It's unbelievable. Everything he does, he does in style, really beautiful. On the golf course, it's a really beautiful swing.

Alcaraz moved up from No. 2 and swapped places with Sinner by virtue of a 6-2, 3-6, 6-1, 6-4 victory over him in Arthur Ashe Stadium on Sunday. Sinner had held No. 1 since making his debut there in June 2024, a 65-week stay. Alcaraz first reached that spot in September 2022 at age 19 -- making him the youngest No. 1 in ATP history -- by claiming his first major championship at that year's US Open. He relinquished that ranking in September 2023.
