How to watch Alcaraz vs Sinner live stream — French Open semi-final, channel, FINAL SET!

The Alcaraz vs Sinner live stream is an absolute must-watch as the Australian Open champion and incoming world number one takes on the reigning Wimbledon champion on Court Philippe-Chatrier for a place in the final at Roland Garros.

This French Open match has proved to be the cracker that was predicted. We're into a final set to see which of Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner will make Sunday's final. The pair have traded sets and it's anyone's for the taking!

Read on and we'll show you how to watch Alcaraz vs Sinner live streams from anywhere with a VPN, potentially for free.

When Novak Djokovic withdrew from the tournament due to injury, it was confirmed that Jannik Sinner would move to the top of the world rankings for the first time. The Italian celebrated the landmark achievement by brutally dispatching 10th seed Grigor Dimitrov in three sets. It was an assured performance from a player at the top of his game, with his relentless power simply too much for the 33-year-old. 

Sinner, who after securing his first Slam in Melbourne added titles in Rotterdam and Miami to his collection, now faces a familiar opponent in Carlos Alcaraz. The Spaniard looked razor sharp as he dispatched Stefanos Tsitsipas with ease in the quarter-finals and is looking at home on the famous red clay courts. The pair will now play each other for the ninth time and there is nothing between them with both players holding four wins apiece. 

Who will emerge victorious this time around and reach a first French Open final? You’ll have to tune in to find out so read on to discover how to get a Alcaraz vs Sinner live stream and watch the 2024 French Open from wherever you are.
