If a Carlos Alcaraz match goes to a fifth set, it's synonymous with victory for the Murcian, or almost always. The Spaniard has a far superior effectiveness when matches reach the fifth set compared to the Big 3 and Jannik Sinner. The El Palmar native boasts a record of 13-1, in other words, a 92.9% win rate. A significantly higher average than the rest. Novak Djokovic has 37 wins and 10 losses (78.7%), Rafael Nadal has 23 wins, 12 losses (65.7%), Roger Federer has 31 wins and 17 losses (64.6%). And lastly, Sinner, who has a very poor percentage when the match goes to the fifth set: 6 wins and 10 losses (37.5%).
