NEW YORK :The site of the U.S. Open will undergo an $800 million transformation, the USTA said on Monday, with a "top-to-bottom" modernisation of the famed Arthur Ashe Stadium and a new player performance center planned for the sprawling Queens campus.
ROME: There’s only one player who is consistently beating Jannik Sinner. Carlos Alcaraz defeated the top-ranked Sinner again, 7-6 (5), 6-1, to win his first Italian Open on Sunday and add another big clay-court title to his resume. Since the start of last year, Alcaraz is the only player to beat Sinner more than once and now he’s done it four straight times. “Just proud about myself, the way that I approached the match mentally. Tactically think I did it pretty well from the first to the last point,” Alcaraz said. “I maintained my level during the whole match.”
Jannik Sinner said he was pleased with his level despite losing the Italian Open final to Carlos Alcaraz on Sunday in his first tournament since a three-month doping ban. Alcaraz fought off two set points late in the opening set before taking control of the match and clinching his first Rome title with a 7-6 (7/5), 6-1 victory. The loss ended Sinner's 26-match winning streak as Alcaraz, who had been the last player to beat the Italian in Beijing last year, made it four wins in a row over the world number one.
Men's tennis world number one and Italy's own Jannik Sinner failed to triumph in Rome's Italian Open.
Carlos Alcaraz won the Italian Open on Sunday after beating rival Jannik Sinner 7-6 (7/5), 6-1 in the final and firing a warning shot for Roland Garros. Alcaraz, who will climb to world number two behind Sinner on Monday, won his third title of the season, eventually dominating Sinner and silencing the over 10,000 fans packed into the centre court stands. The Spaniard claimed victory in his fourth final of the season and sent a message to the rest of the men's tour for the French Open, where he will defend the title once it starts next weekend. "Beating Jannik and winning in Rome, I think both things mixed together give you a great confidence coming to Paris," said Alcaraz.
Double victory for Jasmine Paolini at the Internazionali di Roma. After triumphing in the singles on Saturday afternoon against Coco Gauff, the Italian tennis player, paired with Sara Errani, also won in the doubles tournament.
Jasmine Paolini took advantage of the crowd's support and beat Coco Gauff 6-4, 6-2 to become the first home player to win the Italian Open in 40 years on Saturday.
The Foro Italico (Italian Forum) has lived up to its name this past week as Jannik Sinner and Jasmine Paolini have given home fans a local hero to cheer for in both singles finals at the Italian Open. Sinner can end a near five-decade wait for an Italian winner of the men's tournament in Rome, with Adriano Panatta way back in 1976 the last man to claim the title for a home player. The world number one takes on rival Carlos Alcaraz in a blockbuster final for tennis fans who have watched Sinner return from his three-month doping ban for testing positive twice in March last year for traces of clostebol, a contamination doping authorities accept was accidental.
