Carlos Alcaraz defeated Jannik Sinner 1-6 6-3 6-2 in the Indian Wells men’s semifinals on Saturday, snapping the Italian’s 19-match winning streak in the latest chapter of their fierce rivalry.

Sinner had enjoyed an unbeaten start to the year and his maiden grand slam at the Australian Open in January, but he succumbed to a defeat against the 20-year-old Spaniard who is fast becoming his biggest rival. “I stayed strong mentally,” Alcaraz said afterward, according to the ATP, referencing his deficit in the opening set. “I think that’s a really important part in this game.

Every previous clash between these two young stars has produced otherworldly rallies, and this one was no different as they scampered all over the court, playing 19 net points in the second set alone. “Every time that I’m going to face Jannik I’m going to get nervous,” Alcaraz added, per the ATP. “That’s for sure, because I know that I have to play 100 per cent if I want to beat him … It gives me extra motivation to give my 100 per cent, just to beat him in that head-to-head.
