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.
Ruud, who leapt up to second in the rankings following his 6-4, 2-6, 7-6 (7/1), 6-3 defeat, had no complaints following the loss against a player he described as a "hard nut to crack." "He's riding that wave," the 23-year-old Norwegian said Alcaraz. "At the moment he's the best player in the world in my eyes. He deserves that spot. He's one of these few rare talents that comes up every now and then in sports. That's what it seems like."
