The world’s top tennis rivals, Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, will kick off their 2026 season with a high-profile exhibition match in South Korea.
The duo will meet in the Hyundai Card Super Match in Incheon on January 10, just eight days before the Australian Open begins.
Organisers call it a historic chance for local fans to see the world’s two highest-ranked players compete.
The clash comes shortly after Sinner reclaimed the World No. 1 ranking from Alcaraz following his victory at the Paris Masters.
The rivalry defined 2025, with the players meeting in three of the four Grand Slam finals.
While Sinner won at Wimbledon, Alcaraz took both the French Open and the US Open, and currently holds a 10-5 advantage in their head-to-head record.
