Let us remind you that this is the second title of the season for Alcaraz, as well as the first victory at Roland Garros. The only thing left for him to reach his career “slam” is the Australian Open.
In addition, Alcaraz is the first tennis player since 2019 to win a set in the Roland Garros final with a score of 6:1. Previously, this achievement was achieved by the 14-time winner of Roland Garros, former world number one Rafael Nadal.
