Hello everybody and welcome along to this MARCA in English live blog, this time for the 2025 Roland-Garros men’s final between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz.
It’s the dream final we’ve all been waiting for. The No. 2 seed Jannik Sinner takes on No. 3 seed Carlos Alcaraz in a blockbuster showdown that could usher in a new era of men’s tennis. Two of the sport’s brightest young stars meet on the terre battue of Court Philippe-Chatrier with history, supremacy, and legacy on the line.
Sinner arrives in his first Roland-Garros final with growing momentum, having dropped just one set en route. The Italian star – already the reigning Australian Open champion and newly crowned ATP world No. 1 – dispatched Carlos Alcaraz’s 2023 conqueror, Alexander Zverev, in a clinical semifinal performance.

Known for his athleticism, creative shot-making, and unrivaled court coverage, Alcaraz is bidding to become the youngest man in the Open Era to win a Grand Slam on all three surfaces.
