After a flawless fortnight in Paris, Jannik Sinner was on the brink of capturing his first French Open title after a dominant run on the clay courts of Roland-Garros.

Yesterday's French Open final was as historic as it was tiring for Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, tennis's great young hopes. The pair spent five hours and 29 minutes toing and froing at Roland Garros, breaking the record for the longest decider ever. They're also the first two Grand Slam finalists to be born in the 2000s.
