Carlos Alcaraz<\/a> was riding high Monday in New York.<\/p>\n

The Spaniard, fresh off claiming his sixth major trophy at the US Open<\/a>, enjoyed a rooftop photoshoot in front of the Manhattan skyline to celebrate his second triumph at Flushing Meadows.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The 22-year-old became one of only three men in the Open Era to claim six Slam titles before turning 23, joining Bjorn Borg<\/a> and countryman Rafael Nadal<\/a>. Alcaraz achieved the feat by defeating rival Jannik Sinner<\/a>, against whom he owns a 10-5 Lexus ATP Head2Head advantage.<\/p>\n

Fans dreamt of a final between Alcaraz and Sinner inside Arthur Ashe<\/a> Stadium and that is what they got. This was the pair’s third consecutive major final, after Alcaraz won Roland Garros<\/a> and Sinner earned revenge at Wimbledon<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Alcaraz was asked about his rivalry with Sinner on NBC’s TODAY show, which he visited with US Open<\/a> women’s singles champion Aryna Sabalenka.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor me it\u2019s great,\u201d said Alcaraz<\/a>, who explained how battling Sinner helps him improve. \u201cI think we push each other to the limit every time. My practices are just focused to see how I can be better just to beat Jannik. So I think the rivalry, it is special, splitting Grand Slams, fighting for the great things.\u201d<\/p>\n

Alcaraz also recaptured No. 1 in the PIF ATP Rankings from Sinner by beating the Italian on Sunday. The new World No. 1 owns a 61-6 record this season according to the Infosys ATP Win\/Loss Index and will try to carry his momentum into the final two months of the season.<\/p>\n

A winner of seven titles this season, Alcaraz is in great position to earn ATP Year-End No. 1 presented by PIF honours for the second time (2022).<\/p>\n
