The rivalry heats up as Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner just battled it out in their third major final, leaving fans eager for their next showdown. So, when can we expect to see these top players back on the court?
Alcaraz is set to return to the spotlight this weekend at the Laver Cup in San Francisco, marking his second appearance at this prestigious event. Last year, he played a crucial role in Team Europe’s victory, clinching wins against Ben Shelton and Taylor Fritz.
Following the Laver Cup, the newly crowned World No. 1 will make his debut at the Kinoshita Group Japan Open Tennis Championships in Tokyo, an ATP 500 tournament.
Meanwhile, Jannik Sinner is gearing up for the China Open in Beijing, where he aims to defend his title after lifting the trophy in 2023 and reaching the finals the previous year.

Both athletes will be vying for a spot in the same draw once again at the Rolex Shanghai Masters, one of the final ATP Masters 1000 events of the season.
Currently, Alcaraz is leading the race for the ATP Year-End No. 1 title presented by PIF, putting him on track to clinch this prestigious honor for the second time, following his first achievement in 2022.
