NEW YORK : The U.S. Open began as a farewell party for Serena Williams and ended with proof of her legacy for Black athletes, USTA player development head Martin Blackman told Reuters.
Spanish teenager Carlos Alcaraz ushered in a new era in men's tennis as he defeated Norway's Casper Ruud in an epic US Open final to lift his maiden Grand Slam title and also rise to the top of world rankings.
Rafa Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer eventually loosen their stranglehold on the Grand Slams, pundits may view Carlos Alcaraz's US Open victory on Sunday as heralding the changing of the guard in men's tennis. Having earned his reputation as one of the fiercest competitors among a hungry group of young challengers to the 'Big Three', Alcaraz's win over Casper Ruud not only brought the 19-year-old Spaniard a first major title but also saw him become the youngest world number one in ATP history.
Barbora Krejcikova and Katerina Siniakova completed the career 'Golden Slam' by winning the U.S. Open women's doubles title on Sunday and the Czech duo have no intention of breaking up a winning team.
NEW YORK : Casper Ruud fell short in his bid to lift the U.S. Open trophy on Sunday after losing 6-4 2-6 7-6(1) 6-3 to Carlos Alcaraz but the Norwegian said the tournament had helped cement his belief he will win a Grand Slam one day - as long as he avoids a Spaniard in the final.
Alcaraz, 19, fell to his back and cupped his hands to his face before jumping up to embrace Ruud at the net. He then climbed past photographers and into the stands to celebrate in his box with his team. "This is something I dreamed of since I was a kid, to be number one in the world, to be the champion at a Grand Slam," Alcaraz said in an on-court interview. "All the hard work that I did with my team, with my family. I'm just 19-years-old so all of the tough decisions are with my parents and my team as well. "This is something that is really, really special for me." "Bravo Carlitos!" was displayed on a banner inside the stadium for the native of El Palmar.
