Carlos Alcaraz and Casper Ruud in hunt for No. 1 ranking (TennisUpToDate.com)

With Nadal's early exit from the US Open, Carlos Alcaraz and Casper Ruud have a realistic chance of becoming world number one after the US Open.

- If he gets to the final he'll overtake Nadal for sure but he needs to beat Alcaraz to get it if the Spaniard makes the final. If Alcaraz goes to the final he'll be ahead of Nadal for sure but he must make sure that Ruud loses in the final to him or that Khachanov beats the Norwegian in the semi-final.

Tennis rule changes demanded after Carlos Alcaraz 'gets to bed ... (Daily Express)

CARLOS ALCARAZ beat Marlin Cilic in a five-set classic which lasted over four hours in the US Open finishing at 2.30am.

It was very tough at the start of the fifth (set), Marin played unbelievable but I believe in myself. I lost twice in two months so I will have to be ready for this battle. “The support today was crazy, without you guys it wouldn't be possible to win this match tonight. However, their 2.30am finish was early compared to the Mexican Open match earlier this year between Alexander Zverev and Jenson Brooksby which started at 1.30am and finished at 4.55am. The 19-year-old then completed media duties and physio treatments leading to fears of a 6am bedtime. [Carlos Alcaraz](/latest/carlos-alcaraz) would have ‘got to bed around 6am’ after his US Open win against Marlin Cilic.

Alcaraz v Sinner: Three keys to their next generation US Open ... (Tennis Majors)

Tennis Majors breaks down the US Open quarter-final battle between Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner.

I lost twice in the past two months, so I will have to be ready for this battle against Jannik.” And it’s likely to be long. [on grass in the fourth round at Wimbledon,](https://www.tennismajors.com/wimbledon-news/a-fitting-tribute-to-centre-court-sinner-and-alcaraz-clash-gives-fans-a-glimpse-into-wimbledons-future-610356.html) could be said to favour Sinner. Both men have been to quarter-finals before at Grand Slams but neither has made it through, so something has to give this time. The winner will be breaking uncharted territory – neither has been to a semi-final of a slam before – but it’s a match-up we’re likely to see many more times over the next few years. Having said all that, both men are chasing history, so it’s not like there’s nothing extra to play for.

Alcaraz v Sinner: "Their quality is just phenomenal" (Australian Open)

Prior to the US Open, Todd Woodbridge said he would love to see Carlos Alcaraz or Jannik Sinner make a breakthrough. Now, the Spaniard and the Italian will ...

“I didn't think we were going to have that in this generation. “And for me, I think that would be one of the best stories if it were to happen.” “It would just be the right time to have a young player light it up, who isn't a flash in the pan, we know their quality, we know they're close (to something big). “But what Alcaraz and Sinner are producing in their practices is an indication of what we're going to see, which is the same quality of tennis. “I thought we would struggle to see the quality of tennis in back-ends of tournaments, like (what we saw with) the Nadal-Federer matches, the Djokovic-Federer matches and all of those incredible finals we've seen. The Spaniard and the Italian will battle for a place in the US Open semifinals, which would mark a career-best Grand Slam result for the winner.

And I enjoy what I do. For me, I’m glad to be alone in the court and find solutions to problems. CA: The beautiful places, the beautiful courts that I saw when I was a kid, the beautiful matches. Of course I'm trying to talk in English and with some teachers. I love what I do right now. How do you deal with the individual part of tennis? Then even if I won a tournament, it would be 100, it has to be 1000. You know, I have to keep going and keep trying. He’s the favorite to win the title now. Like his on-court idol, Rafa Nadal, Alcaraz plays with poise and body language that gives no hint as to whether he’s winning or losing. And as we move from intuition to data, terms like “It Factor” and “heart of a champion” almost seem anachronistic. A few months before that, at the ATP’s “Next Gen” year-end event, he made it clear he was the brightest tennis star in ascent, turning that week into a personal showcase, winning 15 of 16 sets against his young peers.
