Spaniard is youngest male to win career grand slam
Carlos Alcaraz has defeated Novak Djokovic to win the Australian Open men’s singles title, becoming the youngest male player to win a career grand slam. The 22-year-old Spaniard has won seven major tournaments: two each at Wimbledon, the French Open and the US Open, now one at Melbourne Park.
Alcaraz’s four-set victory – 2-6, 6-2, 6-3, 7-5 – makes it nine consecutive men’s grand slam events won by either him or his Italian rival Jannik Sinner: the most recent victor apart from them was Djokovic, who won the US Open in September 2023. By beating the 10-times Australian Open champion, the world No 1 Alcaraz consolidates his place atop the ATP men’s singles rankings ahead of Sinner in second. He is the ninth male player to win all four grand slam events.
