Alcaraz Wins Longest Aus Open SF To Reach Maiden Final In Melbourne
Aus Open SF: Chasing his first Australian Open title, world No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz beat third seed Alexander Zverev in the longest Australian Open semifinal in history on Friday to secure his maiden final in Melbourne.
After appearing to recover from the upper right leg injury that hampered him from late in the third set, the Spaniard rallied from 3-5 in the decider to seal his first final appearance in Melbourne with 6-4, 7-6(5), 6-7(3), 6-7(4), 7-5. Moreover, he also became the youngest player to reach all four major finals in the Open era.
In the longest Australian Open semifinal contested and the third-longest match at Melbourne Park, the five-hour, 27-minute triumph kept the Spaniard’s bid for the career Grand Slam afloat. With his semifinal victory, the 22-year-old Spaniard moved within one win of becoming the youngest man to complete the Career Grand Slam (winning the singles title at all four majors).
