2025 Queens Open ATP 500 (Grass) Final - [1] Carlos Alcaraz Garfia (SPN) v/s Jiri Lehechka (CZE)

[ojo rojo]

Mucho excite for Bamosbledon

 

[Rosstour]

Damn, Alcaraz didn't win 6-0 6-0, his chances at Wimbledon are now zero.

Winning this title is really gonna kill him. Sinner losing 2R at Halle means Sinner has Alcaraz right where he wants him!

 

[mightyjeditribble]

18 wins in a row and 3 titles in a row.

5th title this season.

Hopefully Alcaraz can 3 peat at Wimbledon.

How many titles can Carlos win this season?

He'd have to break Sinner's stranglehold on the second half of the season if he wants to reach double figures. He's half-way there though.

 

[messiahrobins]

Jiri ran out of mental strength in the final set, after reaching high levels in the 2nd. Alcaraz has great mental stamina to keep such a level always available.

Jiri also fired about 10 FH UEs when in good rally positions. Needs more spin.

That's why Alcaraz is so hard to play. Mentally he just wears players down.he takes their souls.

Carlitoswinslol.

It’s becoming a thing

 

[TheGoldenEra1990’s]

Since the start of the clay season, Alcaraz has won

27 out of 28 matches....

MC won
Barcelona final
Rome won
RG won
Queens won


Equals Nadal's grass title haul of 4 grass titles.

Alot of bad players on tour or guys who are good are chokers like sinner

 

[speedysteve]

Well done Carlitos!

See you at SW19.

 

[Nappa]

Wow two titles at Queens already. Greats of the sport like Djokovic werent able to win even once here! Incredible scenes

 

[Hitman]

Alot of bad players on tour

Two of the wins in finals were against Sinner...

 

[Incognito]

Ferrero is not here. He deserves zero credit.

Wow! And he still wins. I hope ferrero doesn’t get paid for this week’s Win

 

[Sephiroth]

2024 - 2 titles before Wimbledon started
2025 - 5 titles before Wimbledon started

Alcaraz has to put hit foot on this season's neck for a hall of fame run

 

[FeroBango]

If it does USO becomes a possibility

In my eyes the service looks super fluid with easy pace. The rapid improvement gives me Rafa 2010 energy with a little less brutality (visually).

May the trend continue!

 

[FeroBango]

serve quality has only gone up each set

He was disgusted with his serving during the Munar match. Went back and came back as a legit servebot for the remaining matches.

 

[ibbi]

3rd straight year with a hard, clay, and grass title too. Not bad, not bad.

 

[Incognito]

Winning this title is really gonna kill him. Sinner losing 2R at Halle means Sinner has Alcaraz right where he wants him!

Well Jannik will be fresher but then again Both Alcaraz and Bublik exposed his vulnerability against people that play with variation.

 

[TennisGrandpA]

Carlos is a brilliant player, a delight to watch on grass . hopefully we will have another Sinneraz episode soon at Wimbledon @FeroBango

 

[Rosstour]

2024 - 2 titles before Wimbledon started

Aren’t we being told Alcaraz is failing? Interesting

 

[Hood_Man]

Those ancient 22 year old legs are going to suffer badly.

 

[dking68]

Kinda respect their optimism, though. Sinner could get double-bageled seven matches in a row and @dking68 would still be calling for a calendar slam.

I mean, Sinner had RG on his racket. Up until the 3 match points that he generated, Alcaraz looked vividly hopeless and stood like a statue when Sinner was blowing winners past him. Sinner has only himself to blame

 

[Hitman]

Both Nadal and Alcaraz won RG and Queens back to back when they were 22 years of age.

LOL

 

[Rosstour]

Well Jannik will be fresher but then again Both Alcaraz and Bublik exposed his vulnerability against people that play with variation.

I was just being a bit trollish

 

[Sephiroth]

He would've been reduced to a mug if he'd lost here

 

[TennisGrandpA]

Well, Us Sinner fans have been relying on him being tired after long clay a season and then queens rested and well massaged Sinner will be a more than match for Carlos

[dking68]

@Kralingen Should I hedge or nah? PM me your thoughts

 

[FeroBango]

On the positive side, he has a restful Ibiza this time. Smart.

They first have to both make it to the final ... then let's see.

Alcaraz says Jaume Munar made him the man that he is today.

Back to 2023-like consistency. Lovely to see. Gotta get the big one still at Wimbledon but I’m loving where Alcaraz has managed to go this season after an occasionally rocky start.

 

[Gizo]

On a crucially important note, with HSBC taking over as the tournament sponsor this year, it has been a delight to see the return of red ads around the court at Queen's, for the first time since 2008. The blue or purple ads from 2009-2024, didn't look anywhere near as visually pleasing IMO.

 

[Gary Duane]

Kinda respect their optimism, though. Sinner could get double-bageled seven matches in a row and @dking68 would still be calling for a calendar slam.

So true!!!!

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Congrats alcaraz. He will sleepwalk to another Wimbledon. He’s too good.

 

[Mark Anderson]

Those ancient 22 year old legs are going to suffer badly.

As a serve bot he doesn't need them.

It was jarring af when they changed it

It makes me feel like I'm back in the pub garden that was the Stella Artois championship.

You are a good sport. And @dking68 as well

Now the real question is, has Alcaraz peaked?

HaHa...

He'd have to break Sinner's stranglehold on the second half of the season if he wants to reach double figures. He's half-way there though.

I think he can get to 7 minimum.

He’ll have to go the extra mile to reach double digit titles since hard courts are where he is most vulnerable.

 

[Incognito]

Now the real question is, has Alcaraz peaked?

Not yet IMO. He still has those day dreams mid match and way to showy still.

 

[Hitman]

It was quite the campaign in Queens, a couple of very tough matches.

He is at least adjusted to grass now.

In winning 2025 Queens, Alcaraz has:

1. Become only the 2nd Spanish player to win multiple titles at Queen's (along with Lopez).
2. Become only the 3rd active player to win multiple titles at Queen's (along with Cilic and Berrettini).
3. Won his 5th ATP singles title of the season and 2nd at 500 level.
4. Won his 21st singles ATP title placing him joint 3rd on the leaderboard of active players with titles (along with Cilic).

In reaching the final of 2025 Queen's, Lehecka became only the 2nd Czech player to do so (after Lendl).

5. Became the first player to win on the newly named Andy Murray arena (male player) LOL

Of course the committee might have a spot of head scratching to do if Alcaraz eventually goes one better than Andy.

 

[Gizo]

It makes me feel like I'm back in the pub garden that was the Stella Artois championship.

Exactly. Up to 2008 the tournament had a summer beer garden vibe, and then from 2009 it seemed more boring and stuffy.

Now I appreciate that HSBC is not exactly the same as Stella, but at least with the red background back, it feels like that some of that old vibe has also returned as well.

Yes, the red background reminded me too of the good old days of Stella Artois.

Nope. This is just his warmup before he owns everyone at SW19 again!
