After the Spanish prodigy Carlos Alcaraz won the 2025 French Open after defeating Jannik Sinner, fans started recalling how Alcaraz was once compared with Virat Kohli. However, this is not the first time fans recalled the comparison. Back in 2023, when he won the Wimbledon title, the video surfaced. The clip was from the quaters between Alcaraz and Greece's Stephanos Tsitsipas from the Roland Garros French open 2023. In the clip, Carlos Alcaraz is seen delivering a powerful serve before responding to a return from the opposite side with a solid forehand shot. His opponent, Stefanos Tsitsipas—widely regarded as one of the top contenders in modern tennis—follows up with a delicate drop shot near the net. But Alcaraz quickly counters with an equally clever drop, catching Tsitsipas off-guard and winning the point with sheer finesse. And the moment, Carlos received the point, the commentator boke out saying, "Its like watching Virat Kohli in cricket and Michael Jordan."

CARLOS ALCARAZ DID THE IMPOSSIBLE 🤯🏆#RolandGarros pic.twitter.com/qUggO9zUi2 — Roland-Garros (@rolandgarros) June 8, 2025 Alcaraz recovered from a two-set deficit for the first time in his career. Sinner held three championship points at 5–4 in the fourth set but couldn’t convert. Alcaraz forced a decider and dominated the super tie-break 10–2. He hit 65 winners, won 75% of net points, and saved 6 of 10 break points. Sinner, playing his first clay major final, hit 67 unforced errors. The Spaniard’s court coverage and timely use of drop shots broke Sinner’s rhythm. Alcaraz’s win denied Sinner a second major title and reinforced his dominance on clay as Nadal’s heir.
