The men's singles final is about to start, who can lift the Musketeer Cup at the top of Huashan?

After a long time, he came out, still holding the pipa and half covering his face! In the early hours of yesterday morning, Beijing time, the two matches of the men's singles semifinals of the French Open, which attracted much attention, were held, and the defending champion and second seed Alcaraz, as well as the world No. 1 and top seed Sinner, defeated Musetti and Djokovic respectively to successfully meet in the final.

After the draw was announced, many experts were optimistic that Acre could be invincible in their semi-zone and go straight to the final, and the only threat to him was probably Musetti, the new top 10 player in the world. After all, he has had a stellar run on clay this year, reaching the semi-finals in all four events, the fifth man in the Open era to achieve that figure.

However, the Italian was still in a fierce state in the second set when he won the first set, but was escaped by Arca in a tie-break. Then, his body was exhausted and injured in the third set, and finally he was unable to support himself in the fourth set and had to retire.

Aka, who reached the French Open final again in back-to-backs, did not forget to celebrate, but gave a respectful applause to his friend who won his first career title.

So far, in this year's clay tournament, Acre has beaten Musetti three times, which seems to be the biggest obstacle for his opponent to reach the next level of achievement.

The other match was even more intriguing, between the old and new generations of football champions Sinner and Novak Djokovic. In the end, despite Djokovic's best efforts and a point of breaking Sinner's serve that he had held since the start of the tournament with two set points, the Italian did perform consistently and ended up winning the match in three sets without any major fluctuations.

Judging by the score and time, the three sets were closer to victory than one set, but it was Sinner who won in the end. It was a pity that Djokovic was defeated, but the veteran was able to play such a scene against the world No. 1, and he was still honored. Not only did he touch Roland Garros' clay with his hand as he left the court, but he also mentioned after the match that it was likely to be his last match at the French Open.

At 21 o'clock Beijing time today, the Grand Slam will usher in the first post-00 men's singles final! On one side is Sinner, the top seed and first-time French Open title match, with 20 consecutive Grand Slam wins and a fourth Grand Slam final (previously 3-0, Australian Open 2024, US Open 2024, Australian Open 2025).

On the other side is the defending champion and fifth Grand Slam final (previously 4-0, US Open 2022, Wimbledon 2023, French Open 2024, Wimbledon 2024).

After meeting in the final of this year's Rome Masters, which led to their first major final matchup, the two have both made great strides to continue their first Grand Slam final on clay.

In head-to-head matchups, Alcaraz leads Sinner 8-4 (including 2-1 at Grand Slams, including last year's French Open semi-finals) and has won four straight matches in recent times. Who do you think will lift the Musketeer's Cup?(Source: Tennis Home Author: Luo Cheng Qiye)
