With U.S. Open Win, Carlos Alcaraz Reclaims World No. 1 Ranking

In 2025, for the first time in modern tennis history, the same two men
met in three major tennis tournament finals in the same calendar year.
And this was no fluky occurrence. These two players, Carlos Alcaraz of
Spain, 22, and Jannik Sinner, 24, of Italy, are far and away the two
best players on the planet, and if they remain in good health, stand
to hold that distinction for years to come. Theyre young and hungry
and have already won every major tournament of the past two seasons.
Alcaraz won their first duel, at the French Open in Paris, and his
comeback, five-set, 5-plus-hours thriller still stands as the
outstanding sports moment of the year. Sinner got Alcaraz back with a
clinical four-set victory at Wimbledon.

country's highest court ruled against the government's conduct during

thousands of people in Gaza that it suspects of links to Hamas.
Thousands have also been released without charge, often after months
of detention. Rights groups have documented widespread abuse in
