The top two men's tennis players in the world set up a potentially epic 2025 US Open final with semifinal triumphs on Friday.

No. 2 seed Carlos Alcaraz began the semifinal session inside Arthur Ashe Stadium with a straight-set win over No. 7 seed Novak Djokovic.

No. 1 seed Jannik Sinner didn't win in three sets, but he did take down No. 25 seed Felix Auger-Aliassime in four sets.

Friday's wins set up yet another chapter in the latest great men's tennis rivalry.

Sinner rallied back to win the third and fourth sets and clinch his spot in yet another US Open final.

Sinner will play for his fourth straight hard-court major title on Sunday. He won the 2024 and 2025 Australian Open and won in New York last September.

Sinner is 4-1 in Grand Slam finals, but he has not lost a major championship match on a hard court.
