The French Open men's singles tournament will culminate with a blockbuster clash in Paris on Sunday. World number one Jannik Sinner faces defending champion Carlos Alcaraz in the most eagerly anticipated men's singles final since the start of the Rafa Nadal era 20 years ago at Roland Garros where the results were largely a foregone conclusion.

Jannik Sinner will play Carlos Alcaraz in the French Open final on Sunday, with the sport’s two young rivals contesting a grand slam title for the first time. Defending champion Alcaraz, 21, will bid for a second French Open and fifth grand slam but will have to end World No 1 Sinner’s winning streak over five sets.
