Carlos Alcaraz won his 26th ATP Tour title by comprehensively defeating Arthur Fils in the Qatar Open final.
Alcaraz dispatched Fils in 50 minutes to continue his unbeaten start to the season and pick up his 12th win of 2026.
The Spaniard heads to Indian Wells next, where he will be looking to win his third title after lifting the trophy in California in 2023 and 2024.
After his latest victory in an ATP final, Alcaraz stands head and shoulders above some of the best players in tennis.
Carlos Alcaraz’s incredible win rate in ATP finals
Alcaraz’s latest victory in an ATP final has bolstered his extraordinary record above Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer, and Rafael Nadal.
The Spaniard holds a 76.47% win-rate in ATP finals, having lost just eight of his 34 finals since making his professional debut.
Which member of the ‘Big Three’ is Carlos Alcaraz most similar to? Let us know why below👇
Jannik Sinner comes close to Alcaraz with a 72.73% win-rate from 33 ATP finals, while Nadal is the only member of the big three to hold a win-rate of over 70%.
| Player | Win-Loss Record in ATP finals | Win % in ATP finals |
| Carlos Alcaraz | 26-8 | 76.47% |
| Jannik Sinner | 24-9 | 72.73% |
| Rafael Nadal | 92-39 | 70.23% |
