The Italian tennis player, who yesterday became number 1 in the ATP rankings, will clash for the ninth time with his Spanish rival, in third place in the world rankings. The match on the Philippe Chatrier pitch
A 2024 of firsts for the Italian tennis player Jannik Sinner. The new number 1 in the ATP ranking has in fact qualified for the semi-finals of Roland Garros 2024 for the first time, a milestone never achieved before in the Parisian tournament, on the very day in which he mathematically guaranteed his position at the top of the world rankings.
Ninth match between Sinner and Alcaraz
After beating Grigor Dimitrov, the Bulgarian whom he had already defeated in the final at the Miami Open 2024, the next obstacle will be Carlos Alcaraz, in yet another clash that is repeated in the career of the South Tyrolean: it will be the ninth confrontation between the two at ATP level, the tenth overall, but the first in a Slam semi-final.
