Nineteen-year-old Carlos Alcaraz of Spain, for some time now described as a “phenomenon” or “sensation,” tonight added Grand Slam hardware and the world number-one ranking to those superlatives, beating Norway’s Casper Ruud 6-4, 2-6, 7-6, 6-3 to capture the men’s singles title at the 2022 Every Grand Slam winner handles the moment of victory in their own way—from Björn Borg’s legendary sinking to his knees to Daniil Medvedev’s bizarre attempt to imitate a soccer video game goal celebration. Alcaraz collapsed to the court, threw his hands over his eyes, and briefly curled up in a fetal position, spending a few moments alone with his emotions amidst the roaring crowd of more than 23,000 tennis fans. If a Grand Slam has been something that many people have predicted, even expected from him, the struggle and the fight he displayed throughout the two weeks of the Open showed that it’s not something he’s taking for granted. Alcaraz is the first player in six years to have faced down a match point en route to the title, and the first man in 30 years to face five-set matches in the fourth round, quarterfinals, and semifinals before ultimately winning the tournament. He’s also the youngest Grand Slam champion since Rafael Nadal’s first French Open in 2005 at the age of 19 and the youngest U.S. Open winner since Pete Sampras, also 19 when he won in 1990. (Just how young is Alcaraz? He graciously acknowledged the anniversary of the September 11 attacks before saying anything after th...

Carlos Alcaraz, at just 19, completed an improbable journey on Sunday in Flushing Meadows as he defeated No. 5 Casper Ruud to win the 2022 US Open. Alcaraz came away with a 6-4, 2-6, 7-6, 6-2 win over Ruud to win his first career Grand Slam title. In doing so, Alcaraz became the second-youngest player to win a men's US Open title at 19 years, 129 days old, only trailing Pete Sampras. In addition, Alcaraz is the seventh youngest male or female to ever win a Grand Slam tournament. With the Grand Slam victory, Alcaraz becomes the No. 1 ranked player in the world. Additionally, the 19-year-old budding star is also the youngest player to ever be ranked as the world's No. 1 player. Alcaraz's previous best finish came earlier this year when he reached the 2022 French Open quarterfinals, where he lost to Alexander Zverev. Ruud reached a Grand Slam final for the second time this year, as he also made it to the 2022 French Open final. Ruud, who also had never won a Grand Slam title entering Sunday, split the opening two sets with Alcaraz. It appeared that Ruud was going to take a two sets to one lead in the third set. But after Ruud took a 6-5 lead, Alcaraz really turned it on. He came back to win the ensuing game and tie it up at 6-6. The Spanish star won seven of the eight points in the eventual tiebreaker, in addition to winning 10 of the previous 12 points overall. After splitting the first four games of the fourth set, Alcaraz caught fire as he won four of the final five games ...

The second-highest ranked golfer in the world without a PGA Tour victory in his career finally claimed one Sunday while simultaneously breaking through golf's upper echelon with his first major championship. Matt Fitzpatrick won the 2022 U.S. Open at The Country Club in Brookline, Massachusetts, on Sunday with two birdies and no bogeys across the final seven holes to clinch the tournament at 6 under. Fitzpatrick, 27, edged his 54-hole co-leader Will Zalatoris and 2022 Masters champion Scottie Scheffler by one stroke to hoist the trophy. Having previously won the 2013 U.S. Amateur at The Country Club, Fitzpatrick added to his USGA total in dramatic fashion with a victory at the 122nd U.S. Open. In doing so, he joined Jack Nicklaus and Juli Inkster as the only players to win the two championships at the same venue, solidifying his spot in the annals of golf history. The No. 18 player on the Official World Golf Rankings, Fitzpatrick broke through Sunday after what had already been a strong season at major championships. The Englishman previously finished T14 at the Masters in April and T5 at the PGA Championship last month. Still, it had not been an easy road for Fitzpatrick to this point, and his final round at The Country Club was a perfect encapsulation of this. Whether he would choose to admit it or not, doubt had to creep in as he missed opportunities to win events over the years. A player who had always thrived due to his blend of accuracy and putting prowess, Fitzpatri...

Breakthrough in Brookline. Matt Fitzpatrick (-6) earned his first victory on the PGA Tour in a major way, fighting off Scottie Scheffler and Will Zalatoris (both -5) to become the first English golfer since Justin Rose in 2013 to win the U.S. Open. MORE: Fitzpatrick and Zalatoris started the day tied atop the leaderboard at 4 under. The latter seemingly fell out of contention in the front nine with two bogeys in his first three holes. But birdies on 6, 7 and 9 set him up to battle Fitzpatrick until the last putt. Scheffler, meanwhile, suffered another back-nine meltdown after starting with four birdies in six holes. He was still in contention after bogeys on 10 and 11, especially after a late birdie on 17, but a par on the final hole left him no longer in control of his destiny. Fitzpatrick, who carded a 3-under-par final round, faced similarly difficult circumstances at the start of the back nine, bogeying 10 and 11. But birdies on 13 and 15 — the latter a long putt from across the green — gave him the lead with only three holes remaining. He was solid on 16 and 17, but a tee shot into the bunker on 18 nearly spelled disaster as he nursed a one-stroke lead over Zalatoris and Scheffler. No matter: His approach landed in the center of the green, and he two-putted his way to a par. Zalatoris had the final shot of the day and, to his credit, he nearly forced a playoff. But a heartbreaking miss confirmed Fitzpatrick as the winner of the 2022 U.S. Open. The moment The Sporting ...

World No1 With her victory at Flushing Meadows in New York, the fourth and final grand slam of the year, Swiatek claimed her third Grand Slam trophy after she won the 2020 and 2022 French Open. The Polish superstar raced to a dominant first-set win on the hard courts of the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. However, Jabeur made things complicated for the 21-year-old in a marathon second set. The title, which Great Britain's Emma Raducanu won in 2021, was the first time a No1 seed won the US Open final since Serena Williams in 2014. The men's final takes place on Sunday as Carlos Alcaraz (ESP) will take on Casper Ruud (NOR). Home away from home Swiatek became the first woman to win seven titles in one year since Serena Williams in 2014. "You have to be mentally strong throughout the whole tournament," Swiatek told ESPN. "It wasn't easy. I know I didn't play perfectly. Sometimes you have to accept that. There's going to be noise, but you just have to switch it on in the important moments. "It's totally different than on clay, because on clay I feel like I'm at home. But here it was such a new experience for me, so I'm even prouder." The world No1 also matched a Serena Williams record by claiming her tenth straight finals victory. And she would be forgiven for feeling like she was at home seeing that New York City is home to one of the largest Polish communities in the US. "When I started winning, it was during COVID, so honestly this is a pretty new situation for...
