Carlos Alcaraz defeats Casper Ruud to win the US Open final, becoming the youngest No. 1 in the history of the ATP rankings at 19 years old.
Carlos Alcaraz is now the youngest No. 1 in the history of the Association of Tennis Professionals after defeating Casper Ruud in the US Open Final on Sunday.
Alcaraz, 19, defeated 23-year-old Ruud 6-4, 2-6, 7-6 , 6-3 in a match that took over three hours. Alcaraz becomes the youngest men's singles grand slam winner since compatriot Rafael Nadal won the first of his major titles in June 2005."This is something I've dreamt of since I was a kid. To be No. 1 in the world, to be a champion," Alcaraz said, adding he thought about some of his family members who couldn't make it to watch him play.
