Carlos Alcaraz produced what he described as the “perfect” performance against Jannik Sinner to win his second US Open and sixth grand slam title, while reclaiming the World No 1 ranking from his rival with a stunning 6-2, 3-6, 6-1, 6-4 victory.
Just eight weeks after Alcaraz’s defeat to Sinner in the Wimbledon final, the Spaniard triumphed in New York in what was the third consecutive grand slam final between the pair.
