Alcaraz Triumphs in Five-Set Marathon
Medvedev Advances to Final Against Casper Ruud
New York, NY - Carlos Alcaraz and Daniil Medvedev engaged in an epic five-set semifinal battle at the 2023 US Open, with Alcaraz ultimately emerging victorious.
Alcaraz, the 19-year-old Spanish sensation, lost the first two sets 7-6 (6) and 6-3, but he rallied to win the next three sets 6-2, 6-1, and 6-2. The match, which lasted nearly four hours, was filled with thrilling rallies and impressive shot-making from both players.
Medvedev, the reigning US Open champion, played well but struggled to match Alcaraz's energy and consistency in the latter stages of the match. He will now face Casper Ruud in the final on Sunday.
Alcaraz's victory marks a major milestone in his career, as he becomes the youngest player to reach the US Open final since Pete Sampras in 1990. He will also move to world number one in the ATP rankings after the tournament.
