Carlos Alcaraz vs Arthur Rinderknech prediction, betting tips & odds, head-to-head, preview: US Open 2025

Carlos Alcaraz is making a strong case to finish the tournament as the World No. 1
Carlos Alcaraz powered past Italy’s Luciano Darderi 6-2, 6-4, 6-0 in the 2025 US Open third round, notching his 80th Grand Slam victory. Despite a brief medical timeout for a precautionary knee check in the second set, the second seed showed no signs of slowing down, extending his exceptional run to 42-2 since April.
The 2022 champion dominated from the start, breaking Darderi early and capitalizing on his opponent’s double faults at crucial moments. Alcaraz closed out the match with precision and flair, setting up a fourth-round clash against Arthur Rinderknech.
The Spaniard will back himself to reach at least the semi-finals, with his section of the draw now considerably lighter. Early exits from Ben Shelton, Daniil Medvedev, and Alejandro Davidovich Fokina have cleared several major hurdles, leaving Alcaraz with a far smoother path to the final four.
