Alcaraz Overcomes Rocky Start to Storm Into French Open Final!

Carlos Alcaraz turned a shaky beginning into a masterclass of dominance, defeating Lorenzo Musetti (4-6, 7-6, 6-0, 2-0 ret.) in a thrilling Roland Garros semifinal! 🎾 The defending champion weathered early pressure before flipping the match on its head, ultimately forcing the Italian's retirement in the fourth set.

A First Set to Forget, A Comeback to Remember

The Spaniard started with uncharacteristic errors—wayward serves and nervous rallies—that cost him the opening set (4-6). Musetti, riding the momentum, looked poised for an upset. But Alcaraz, like the true champion he is, dug deep to claim a dramatic second-set tiebreak (7-6) and level the match.

Then came... Hurricane Alcaraz. ⚡

Third Set: A Demolition Job
With surgical precision and breathtaking shot-making, Alcaraz obliterated Musetti in the third set: 6-0 in just 27 minutes! The Italian, clearly hampered by a left thigh injury, had no answers for the Spanish whirlwind. By the fourth set, trailing 2-0, Musetti could no longer continue.

One Win Away From Back-to-Back Titles!

This victory books Alcaraz's second consecutive French Open final—putting him one step closer to cementing his clay-court legacy. After defeating Alexander Zverev to claim his maiden Roland Garros crown in 2024, he now stands on the brink of history.

🎾 Next Challenge Awaits:
He'll face the winner of the blockbuster Sinner vs. Djokovic semifinal. A potential rematch with Djokovic (who he beat in 2024) or a next-gen showdown against rival Sinner?
