In one of the practice sessions leading up to the much-awaited US Open 2024, Carlos Alcaraz was seen entertaining the fans as he kicked a big tennis ball into the net on the other side. After scoring, he celebrated in the same way his idol, Cristiano Ronaldo did. The Spanish superstar imitated the SIUUU celebration and the crowd responded in their own manner and applauded the celebration. 

In the 34th minute, Cristiano Ronaldo gave Al Nassr the only goal versus Al-Raed, but his team could only muster a draw during this Saudi Pro League encounter. Ronaldo's team, though, was unable to hold onto the lead and gave up a goal during the 49th minute through a penalty kick. After the whistle blew at the end of the contest, Al Nassr had shared the points because they were unable to mount a comeback during the game.

Ronaldo is renowned for creating history when playing football. However, his achievements are beginning to extend off the pitch as well. Following the launch of his YouTube channel on Wednesday, Cristiano Ronaldo became the fastest person to gain one million followers.

Carlos Alcaraz will start the night's action on Arthur Ashe Stadium at 7 p.m. on Tuesday during the US Open, where he will take on Australian Li Tu in an attempt to win a fifth major trophy.

Jannik Sinner, the winner of the Australian Open, wants to win every hard-court Grand Slam event this year. The second match of the Ashe day session begins at 11 a.m., with the Italian, ranked first in the PIF ATP Rankings, taking on American Mackenzie McDonald. The WTA match involving Iga Swiatek as well as Kamilla Rakhimova comes first. During the Lexus ATP Head2Head series, Sinner has a 3-0 edge over McDonald.

US Open 2022 champion Alcaraz and top-seeded Sinner are headed for a showdown in the semifinals. One of the most exciting matches in recent memory, their 2022 quarterfinal at Flushing Meadows had five sets of intense exchanges.
