The final finale of the 2025 French Open, the men's singles final, will be grandly staged at 9 o'clock tonight. World No. 1 and Italian newcomer Wang Sinner and world No. 2 and Spanish all-round fighter Alcaraz are expected to compete in the final of this year's Musketeer Cup.

Sinner reached the final of the French Open for the first time in his career, eager to win the title and defend his world No. 1 title; Alcaraz has reached the final of the French Open for the second year in a row, hoping to successfully defend his title and take over the mantle of Spanish god of war and king of clay Nadal as soon as possible.

This pinnacle decisive battle is of extraordinary significance! This is the first time that the post-00s will meet in the Grand Slam final, marking that the post-00s players have completely crossed the post-90s and post-95 players, and truly took over the banner of Federer, Nadal, and Djokovic. Alcaraz has already won four Grand Slam titles, Sinner has also won three Grand Slam titles, and the two of them have won the last five Grand Slam titles in a row. However, post-00s players will compete in Grand Slam finals, starting from the 2025 French Open.

Alcaraz and Sinner are both gifted and lifelong enemies, just like Federer and Nadal back then. Alcaraz had this to say about Sinner: "Sinner's skills, fighting spirit and pursuit of perfection are all driving tennis forward. Every time I play against Sinner, it's always challenging and motivates me to spot my shortcomings and train harder. Sinner also had no low opinion of Alcaraz: "Alcaraz has all the qualities of a top player on the tour. He is very physically strong and very well-rounded. He has a very good ball quotient and feel, and he can have a lot of options in the game, playing long balls, short cuts, and unbelievable volleys at the net. Now even his serve is getting better and better. ”

So far in his career, the two Chosen have met 11 times, with Alcaraz taking a temporary lead with 7 wins and 4 losses. In the semifinals of the 2023 China Open, Sinner defeated Alcaraz in two sets with a score of 7:6 6:1 and finally won the China Open championship. It was Sinner's fourth career win over Alcaraz, and Alcaraz is still fresh in his memory. Speaking at his post-match press conference, he said: "Sinner is a very well-rounded player who does almost everything well. Every time he hits, he pushes you to the limit, and you have to do everything possible to hit back every incoming ball perfectly. However, even if you think you're hitting the ball well, Sinner can even return the ball more forcefully than you do. ”

It was Sinner's challenge and motivation that Alcaraz continued to improve and do things better on the pitch. In the semifinals of the 2024 Indian Wells Masters, the semifinals of the 2024 French Open, and the final of the 2024 China Open, Alcaraz defeated Sinner three times in a row in one season, and all of them defeated Sinner in a reversal. Until the final of the 2025 Rome Masters, Alcaraz returned from injury after almost three weeks of recuperation, beating Sinner, who had returned from a three-month suspension, in two sets, 7:6 6:1.

Same score, different results! Alcaraz said the Rome Masters final win over Sinner was "tactically the best game I've ever played." Because I was very focused and tactically used well throughout the game, I played well from the first point to the last point, and I always maintained a high standard. Sinner summed it up after the game: "I didn't perform well in this final, and if I had the opportunity to play again, I would have made new choices in several places. ”

Now here's the opportunity, at nine o'clock tonight. In the final of the 2025 French Open, Alcaraz and Sinner, the chosen ones, will compete at the pinnacle. How will Sinner respond to Alcaraz, who has won four consecutive seasons and seems to have become his own struggler, and what changes will he make? How can you get Alcaraz's serve, especially his second serve, so that you can get started as quickly as possible and take control of the attack? And how can you get rid of Alcaraz's maneuvers on the left and right sides of the baseline and in front of the net, so that he doesn't lose his balance and get beaten passively?

For Alcaraz, isn't it an even tougher match, if not a torment? Looking ahead to the 2025 French Open showdown, Alcalá said: "I love playing against Sinner, but most of the time, it's tormenting because Sinner always pushes me to the limit. Regardless of the outcome of this final, it will teach me how to be a better player, which is important and wonderful. For the fans, there is no doubt that it will be a very good Sunday. ”
