In women's singles, the strongest on the courts of New York was the first racket of the world, Iga Swiatek from Poland. The Roman numeral III to the serial number of Carlos at the top of the world tennis classification arose as a tribute to Alcaraz's compatriots Carlos Moya and Juan Carlos Ferrero, who also visited the top of the ranking. But speaking frankly, these two tennis players were still globally, rather, «passing» the first rackets of the world. Moya ruled men's tennis for only two weeks, while Ferrero ruled for eight. With the advent of Alcaraz, according to many experts, a new era of his name began in this sport.Grand Slam TournamentsUS Open ATP11 September 2022 • start at 23:20FinishedCasper RuudNorway1 : 34:66:26:73:6Carlos AlcarazSpainAlcaraz is the youngest number one tennis ranking in history.
