On the morning of September 8, Carlos Alcaraz defeated Jannik Sinner with a score of 6-2, 3-6, 6-1, 6-4 to win the 2025 US Open. The Spanish star received a $5 million bonus and improved his head-to-head record with Sinner to 9-5.

The 2025 US Open is Alcaraz's second Grand Slam title in 2025 after Roland Garros. This is also the 6th Grand Slam title of the Spaniard's career, helping him equal the record with Boris Becker and Stefan Edberg in the Open Era.
Alcaraz won his second US Open title and became the fourth player after Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and Mats Willander to win at least two Grand Slam titles on all surfaces.
Alcaraz is a two-time winner of the US Open, Roland Garros and Wimbledon. Carlitos has never won the Australian Open, but the Australian Grand Slam earlier this year used the same hard court as the US Open.
In 2025, Alcaraz faced Sinner three times in the finals of Roland Garros, Wimbledon, and the US Open, with the Spanish star winning twice. This achievement helped Alcaraz take the number one spot on the ATP rankings from Jannik Sinner himself.

After the 2025 US Open, Alcaraz was awarded 1,950 points and climbed to the top of the ATP rankings with 11,540 points. Jannik Sinner was deducted 750 points for failing to defend his title and only had 10,780 points, dropping to second place.
Alexander Zverev still holds the No. 3 position, but the gap between him and Alcaraz and Sinner is very large. Novak Djokovic reached the semi-finals of the US Open 2025, moving up 3 places to No. 4 in the world and is exactly 155 points ahead of Taylor Fritz (No. 5).
In 2025, the 38-year-old Serbian star reached the semi-finals of all four Grand Slam tournaments. Nole has many opportunities to improve his ranking in the rest of the season, as he does not have to defend too many points in the Shanghai Masters and Paris Masters compared to the players competing for the ranking.
