In a herculean display of resilience at the French Open final, Carlos Alcaraz orchestrated an improbable comeback, surmounting a two-set deficit and extricating himself from the precipice of defeat by saving three match points to vanquish the top-ranked Jannik Sinner, thereby securing his fifth Grand Slam title – a flawless record in major finals – and marking his second consecutive triumph at Roland Garros, a victory that inscribes Alcaraz into the annals of tennis history as only the ninth player in the Open Era to conquer a Grand Slam final after surrendering the first two sets. This watershed victory, achieved at the nascent age of 22, furnishes Alcaraz with his twentieth career title, culminating in a grueling five-hour and twenty-nine-minute contest, the lengthiest French Open final of the Open Era, while Sinner, despite succumbing to defeat, exemplified exemplary sportsmanship, notably conceding a point to Alcaraz in the pivotal eleventh game, all witnessed by a constellation of luminaries including Dustin Hoffman, Natalie Portman, Spike Lee, Pharrell Williams, Formula 1 driver George Russell, and rugby icon Antoine Dupont.
