Donald Trump arrives at US Open men\u2019s final to cheers and boos<\/p>\n

Carlos Alcaraz<\/a> produced what he described as the \u201cperfect\u201d performance against Jannik Sinner<\/a> to win his second US Open<\/a> and sixth grand slam title, while reclaiming the World No 1 ranking from his rival with a stunning 6-2, 3-6, 6-1, 6-4 victory<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Just eight weeks after Alcaraz\u2019s defeat to Sinner in the Wimbledon final, the Spaniard triumphed in New York in what was the third consecutive grand slam final between the pair. <\/p>\n

The 22-year-old becomes the second-youngest man to reach six grand slam titles, after Bjorn Borg, as well as only the fourth man to win multiple grand slam titles on the three different surfaces. <\/p>\n

With US president Donald Trump in attendance<\/a>, and the final delayed by 30 minutes due to security checks that meant the match started while thousands of fans<\/a> were yet to enter the stadium, Alcaraz was the star attraction as he produced a sensational display. <\/p>\n

Alcaraz said it had been his best-ever tournament and agreed with the assessment of his coach Juan Carlos Ferrero that he had ben faultless to earn revenge against Sinner after the Wimbledon final. <\/p>\n

\u201cHe’s right. I think I played perfect,\u201d Alcaraz said. \u201cIf I want to win, you know, the US Open, if I want to beat Jannik, I have to play perfect, and I think he was right.\u201d Follow the latest analysis and reaction from the US Open below<\/p>\n
