Alcaraz Leads the Head-to-Head
This will be the 12th meeting between Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, with the Spaniard leading their head-to-head 7-4. Alcaraz also holds the psychological edge, having won the last four matches against the Italian, including a thrilling five-set semifinal at Roland Garros 2024.
Their most recent encounter came at the ATP Masters 1000 in Rome in May 2025, where Alcaraz defeated Sinner 7(7)-6(5), 6-1. On clay, the Spaniard has been dominant, winning two of their three clashes on the surface. Sinner’s lone win on clay came in the 2022 Umag final in Croatia, where he triumphed in straight sets.
Sinner’s Perfect Run to the Final
Fresh off his Australian Open victory in January, Jannik Sinner has been in sublime form throughout the French Open. He has yet to drop a set in the tournament and displayed sheer dominance in the semifinals, defeating three-time French Open winner Novak Djokovic in straight sets: 6-4, 7-5, 7-6(3).
The match, while one-sided in score, featured plenty of drama. Djokovic, known for his resilience, had his moments of brilliance but failed to convert three set points in the third set. Sinner’s precision, powerful groundstrokes, and consistent serving proved too much even for the 24-time Grand Slam champion.
At just 23 years old, Sinner has already made history and now aims to win his second Grand Slam title and first at Roland Garros.
Alcaraz’s Route: Less Testing but No Less Dangerous
On the other side, Carlos Alcaraz, the reigning French Open champion and Olympic silver medallist, advanced to the final after receiving a walkover in the semifinals against Italy’s Lorenzo Musetti. Despite a less demanding path to the final, Alcaraz remains a dangerous opponent with four Grand Slam titles under his belt.
At 22, Alcaraz has already established himself as a generational talent, and with a strong record against Sinner and a deep understanding of clay courts, he’s hungry to defend his crown in Paris.
A Final to Define the Future
This matchup isn’t just about the trophy – it’s a battle between the future titans of tennis. Both Alcaraz and Sinner have shown they are ready to carry the sport forward, and Sunday’s final could mark the beginning of a legendary rivalry at the top of the game.
