Carlos Alcaraz powers into the third round of the U.S. Open after a gritty four-set win over Jaime Faria, bouncing back from a shaky first set to dominate the next three. The top seed, still chasing his second straight title and looking to defend his 2023 crown, now faces a fiery challenge from Yibing Wu — who’s gone undefeated so far this tournament and is riding a wave of momentum. Their previous meeting in 2024 ended with Alcaraz prevailing, but Wu’s resilience and deep run in 2022 suggest he’s ready to make it personal. Despite a wrist injury that sidelined him earlier this year, Alcaraz remains a force on return, and while the odds favor him, Wu’s fearless play could turn this Friday afternoon showdown into a thriller.
