Preview
World number one Jannik Sinner faces defending champion Carlos Alcaraz in the most eagerly anticipated men’s singles final since the start of the Rafa Nadal era 20 years ago at Roland Garros where the results were largely a foregone conclusion.
Italian top seed Sinner has been impressive since his return from a doping ban last month, charging into Sunday’s final without dropping a single set in his six matches in Paris.
The 23-year-old outclassed 24-time Grand Slam champion Novak Djokovic in their semifinal to confirm his superb form on clay after also reaching the final in Rome in May in his first tournament back from his ban. He was beaten there by Alcaraz in straight sets.
Any doubts that Sinner was lacking match practice were quickly dispelled by the ruthless efficiency with which he has dispatched all his opponents in Paris to set up a mouth-watering final against arguably the most gifted claycourt player since 14-time French Open champion Nadal.
Sinner had never before reached the final in Paris but he will be looking to add the Roland Garros title to his rapidly growing list of majors, which already includes two Australian Open crowns and last year’s U.S. Open.
He is on a 20-match winning streak in Grand Slam tournaments after lifting the trophy in New York last year and then clinching the title in Melbourne at the start of this year.
Alcaraz, who is attempting to become only the third man to retain his Roland Garros title this century after Nadal and Gustavo Kuerten, has won the last four encounters with Sinner.
Alcaraz’s progression to the final has not been equally smooth, with the Spaniard dropping a set in four of his six matches, including in his semi-final against Italian Lorenzo Musetti, who retired injured at the start of the fourth set. But his occasional lapses of concentration during his matches in Paris barely mask his lethal force on the surface.
He won the claycourt tournaments in Monte Carlo and Rome while also reaching the final in Barcelona in a near-perfect preparation to Paris.
