In the end, the central scene belonged to Alcaraz, which sealed its sixth Grand Chelem title with a master's degree in service, Win 6-2 3-6 6-1 6-4.
The 22 -year -old now has six grandch titles – the youngest man from Bjorn Borg to achieve the feat – adding a second trophy here to his French Open and Wimbledon Double.
“In general, I think it was my best level during the two weeks. From the first game to the final, I think I played Grand Tennis,” said Alcaraz Sky Sports' Laura Robson at the Arthur Ashe stadium.
“The goal was really, really high. I haven't lost attention at all in any of the games, which I'm really happy with.
“With the service, I really focused on that. I broke myself three times, once in the final. In general, I just played incredible tennis.”
Asked which part of his game he was most proud to execute against Big Rival Sinner, Alcaraz replied:
“I just maintained my best level from the first game until the last. Tactically, I tried to be perfect.
“The matches against Jannik consist in being good tactically, and physically it is really demanding too. I think I must be perfect against him.
“Today, I was just brilliant, to be honest. In the second set, some mistakes, but in general, I was just brilliant.
“If I want to beat Jannik on the biggest scene, I must be brilliant, which I am really happy with.”
The sinner seems to become more “unpredictable”
Sinner admits that his main objective is to become more “unpredictable” to become a better player after his defeat in four sets in his enemies.
The Italian said: “I was very predictable in the court today. He changed the game. He is also his style of the way he plays. Now, it's going to be on me if I want to make changes or not. We will really work on it.
“I did not do a service and a volley. I did not use a lot of drops. Then you arrive at the point where you have to play Carlos, you have to get out of the comfort zone. I will try to make changes. To be a little more unpredictable as a player. This is what I have to do, try to become a better tennis player. At the end of the day, that's my main goal.”
Sinner added with a smile: “I am very, very solid, you know, Baseliner. I am a very strong striker. I am a good player, you know …”
