Jannik Sinner was on the brink of capturing his first French Open title but could not convert three match points and went on to lose the thrilling final to Carlos Alcaraz.

Alcaraz, who won his fifth Grand Slam tournament in as many finals, produced one of the greatest comebacks in the history of the clay-court tournament.

The French Open men's final features a matchup between two of the top tennis players in the world as Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner face off on Sunday.

By Karolos Grohmann PARIS (Reuters) -World number one Jannik Sinner was part of the longest French Open final when he lost in five sets to defending champion Carlos Alcaraz on Sunday but his dad was not there to witness it because he was at work,

It was the first No. 1 vs. No. 2 final in Paris since 2013, when Serena Williams defeated Maria Sharapova, and just the second in the last 30 years.

Coco Gauff, the No. 2 seed, became the first American woman to win the French Open singles title since Serena Williams in 2015.
