Carlos Alcaraz vs Jannik Sinner: Six Kings Slam 2025 Final Start Time, Preview, and Where to Watch in Riyadh

The stage is set for another thrilling chapter in one of tennis’s fiercest modern rivalries as Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner face off in the 2025 Six Kings Slam final. The exhibition event may be unofficial, but the stakes are sky-high — a $6 million winner’s prize and the title of “King of Riyadh”.
Sinner, the defending champion, edged out Alcaraz in a gripping three-set battle last year. But this season, the Spaniard has dominated their head-to-head, winning four of their five encounters in 2025, including their showdowns at Roland Garros and the US Open.
Still, Sinner’s stunning triumph at Wimbledon proved he’s capable of turning the tables — making this sixth meeting of the year another can’t-miss clash between the world’s top two players.
