Alcaraz and Sinner have won each of the past seven Grand Slam titles between them
Long before either player won a major title, Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz had already been identified as the rivalry to lead men's tennis into the post 'Big Three' landscape.
An electric night at the US Open three years ago was the first real sign why.

'Sin-caraz' was born.
