The U.S. Open stage is set, and tennis fans couldn't ask for a better final on the men's side. Men's No. 1 Jannik Sinner will square off against men's No. 2 Carlos Alcaraz in a highly anticipated matchup to determine one of the sport's biggest events.It should be familiar territory for both men. Both Sinner and Alcaraz have won the U.S. Open before. Alcaraz took home the win at the event in 2022. Sinner is looking to retain his title after winning the tournament last season.AdvertisementBecause they are two of the biggest names in the sport, Sinner and Alcaraz have faced each other quite a bit over their careers. Sinner might be the world's No. 1, but he's struggled in those matchups. Alcaraz holds a strong 9-5 record when playing against Sinner. A win over Sinner on Sunday would go a long way toward Alcaraz reclaiming his spot as the men's top player, which he last held in 2023.For Sinner, the win would make him the first men's back-to-back champ at the U.S. Open since Roger Federer in 2008. Federer actually won five straight U.S. Opens between 2004 and 2008. There's been no repeat winner on the men's side since then.AdvertisementIf Sinner can pull out the win, he would join Aryna Sabalenka, who successfully defended her U.S. Open crown with a win over Amanda Anisimova on Saturday.How to watch the 2025 US Open men's singles finalDate: Sunday, September 7Jannik Sinner-Carlos Alcaraz start time: 2 p.m. ETLocation: USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center | Queens, NYTV channel: ESPNFollow along with Yahoo Sports for live updates, highlights and more from the 2025 US Open men's singles final:
