Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner are all set to renew their budding rivalry in the semifinals of the 2024 French Open on Friday, June 7. Both have looked in tremendous form so far during the clay-court Major.
Alcaraz kicked off his campaign with a commanding 6-1, 6-2, 6-1 victory over J.J. Wolf. He avoided a minor hiccup in the second round against Jesper De Jong, eventually sealing a 6-3, 6-4, 2-6, 6-2 win. The Spaniard then took down 27th seed Sebastian Korda 6-4, 7-6(5), 6-3 in the third round.
Up against an in-form Felix Auger-Aliassime in the fourth round, Alcaraz played some of his best tennis to register a comprehensive 6-3, 6-3, 6-1 win. He then reigned supreme in his quarterfinal encounter against Stefanos Tsitsipas, sealing a rather one-sided 6-3, 7-6 (3), 6-4 victory to reach French Open semifinals for the second successive year.
Sinner, meanwhile, opened his campaign in the French capital with a resounding 6-3, 6-3, 6-4 win against Christopher Eubanks. He then swept aside French veteran Richard Gasquet in the following round to a 6-4, 6-2, 6-4 scoreline.
The Italian carried that momentum into his third-round match, sealing another comfortable 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 victory over Pavel Kotov. He then took on Corentin Moutet in the fourth round and came back from a set down to win 2-6, 6-3, 6-2, 6-1 win to reach the quarterfinals.
Sinner faced tenth seed Grigor Dimitrov and produced a fine performance to win 6-2, 6-4, 7-6(3) and reach his maiden French Open semifinal.
Alcaraz and Sinner have played each each other eight times on tour previously,with the head-to-head split evenly at 4-4 at the moment. Alcaraz won their last encounter in Indian Wells earlier this year, but it was Sinner who won their only encounter on clay back in 2022 in the final of the Croatia Open in Umag.
Both players will look to one-up the other as they continue their quest for a maiden French Open title. As they prepare to script the next chapter in their rivalry, here are all the details of their upcoming contest:
