Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz split the four Grand Slams between them in 2024, confirming their status as the brightest stars in tennis' new golden generation.

He swept Taylor Fritz off court in a brutally one-sided final, becoming the first man since Guillermo Vilas in 1977 to win his first two Grand Slam titles in the same season.
That is a feat that eluded Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal as well as Pete Sampras and Andre Agassi.
