Carlos Alcaraz vs Novak Djokovic, US Open 2025: Carlos Alcaraz have made it to the US Open 2025 final after defeating Novak Djokovic in three straight sets of 6-4, 7-6 (4), 6-2 at the Arthur Ashe Stadium in the semifinal on Friday, September 5.

The victory secured the 22-year-old Spaniard’s place in his third consecutive Grand Slam final. The youngster headed into the match as a favourite, but he had never beaten Djokovic on a hard court before the clash.

He broke several records after a brilliant win over Novak Djokovic. Alcaraz is now the youngster man to reach multiple Grand Slams on every surface in the Open Era. Alcaraz had previously won the US Open 2022 on hard court, while he has two French Open titles on Clay. He has also won Wimbledon twice on Grass.

Alcara is now the second-youngest player to reach men's singles finals on all three surfaces at a Grand Slam in a season, older than only Bjorn Borg (22 years 84 days) in 1978. Alcaraz also became the third-youngest man in the open era to reach seven Grand Slam finals, behind Bjorn Borg and Rafael Nadal.

Notably, Alcaraz reached the summit clash of the ongoing US Open 2025 without dropping a set. If Alcaraz wins the final without losing a set, he will join an elite list of players to win a major tournament without dropping a set. Only five men in the Open Era have achieved this stellar feat.

"For me, it's great. It's something that I'm working on, just the consistency in the matches, in the tournaments, in the year in general," Alcaraz said. "Just not having ups and downs in the match. Just the level that I start the match [with], just wanted to keep that level really high during the whole match.

"So I'm thinking I'm doing that in this tournament, which I'm really proud of. Yeah, let's see. But probably I'm just getting mature. I am just getting to know myself much better, what I need on, off the court. The things that I'm doing off the court and I think I'm doing really, really well, which helps a lot, and to play my best tennis. I think it's getting better."
