Overview

  • Carlos Alcaraz has not dropped a set through three rounds, dispatching Reilly Opelka, Mattia Bellucci and Luciano Darderi to set up a last‑16 match with Arthur Rinderknech.
  • Mats Wilander labeled Alcaraz the man to beat in New York, citing his focus, movement and near‑flawless shotmaking after three commanding wins.
  • John McEnroe told ESPN that Alcaraz is the most talented player he has ever seen and said the Spaniard is the better all‑around player if both he and Jannik Sinner are at their best.
  • McEnroe also praised Sinner’s level and resilience following his three‑month suspension, while Patrick McEnroe gave Sinner a slight current edge despite the head‑to‑head favoring Alcaraz.
  • Sinner, the defending champion and top seed, has advanced without dropping a set and described Alcaraz as an all‑round player who is a favorite at every tournament, with both on course for a possible final from opposite halves.
