Although more than twenty-four hours have passed since the Roland Garros final, there are still many who want to have their say on the epic confrontation that saw Carlos Alcaraz beat Jannik Sinner by a whisker after an intense Roland Garros final that lasted 5 hours and 29 minutes. Among them was Boris Becker, who through his social profiles thanked the two young champions for what they showed on Sunday in Paris.

“It’was one of the best Grand Slam finals I have ever had the privilege to commentate – said Becker, now a pundit and second voice for the international version of ‘Eurosport‘ -. The others were the 2008 Wimbledon final (Federer-Nadal), the 2012 Australian Open final (Djokovic-Nadal), the 2019 Wimbledon final (Djokovic-Federer) and the 2020 US Open final (Thiem-Zverev)”.

“The quality, the’intensity and the sheer emotional involvement were incredible – added the’former No. 1 ranking, who at the Slam level missed out on victory, interestingly, only at Roland Garros -. Kudos to Carlos Alcaraz and great respect to Jannik Sinner for delivering a tennis lesson worthy of the history books. The game of tennis is in good hands with these two players”.

The Roland Garros 2025 final was, according to many insiders, one of the most beautiful tennis matches ever. Sinner came close to success in the fourth set, wasting three match points, but he battled on equal terms with Alcaraz until the super tie-break, which decided a match that will forever remain in the memory of fans.
