The 22-year-old ticked off another straight sets victory on Tuesday, overcoming Jiri Lehecka 6-4 6-2 6-4 to advance into the <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/tennis\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>US Open 2025<\/a> semifinals. He now awaits longstanding rival Novak Djokovic in the final four. After cruising to victory on Arthur Ashe Stadium, Alcaraz shattered a plethora of records in New York.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Carlos Alcaraz Thrashes Jiri Lehecka at US Open 2025<\/h2><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Jiri Lehecka vs. Carlos Alcaraz Highlights | 2025 US Open Quarterfinal\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/pgnRuHWLlnk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>It was yet another seamless performance from the five-time Grand Slam champion, who is yet to drop a set across five matches thus far. In the process, Alcaraz stretched his winning streak to 11 matches since losing the Wimbledon final to World No. 1 Jannik Sinner. Speaking of the Italian and his top ranking, Alcaraz is hunting down the prize with fire in his eyes and ice in his veins. Striking the ball with utmost disdain and power, victory was a mere formality vs Lehecka.<\/p><p>Although the scoreline suggests a straightforward outing, there were several high intensity rallies between the players. However, Carlitos managed to take time away from the Czech star, and forced him into uncomfortable positions on court. After all, he was bound to learn from his defeat to the 23-year-old in Doha earlier this year. Alcaraz is set to feature in his first hard court major semifinal &ndash; since reaching the same stage at the 2023 US Open.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Alcaraz after beating Lehecka at U.S. Open<br><br>&ldquo;Do you ever watch your own highlights?&rdquo;<br><br>Carlos: &ldquo;I&rsquo;m not.

If he can get past two more matches without dropping a set, he will become the first man in the Open Era to capture the US Open championship by winning 21\/21 sets.<\/p><p>Who do you think will end up as the World No. 1 between Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner at the end of the US Open 2025?

I specialise in tennis and football writing at The Playoffs News, and I have prior experience working at EssentiallySports and Sportskeeda. Born and raised in Bengaluru, India, sport was my safe space right from my childhood. After trying my hand at multiple sports and representing my educational institutions in cricket, badminton and table tennis, I found sports media to be my calling. My message to the readers is not to be shy to express themselves - regardless of whether it is playing, talking or writing about sport. And if you\u2019re a fan of Roger Federer, Lionel Messi and\/or Stephen Curry - I\u2019m your guy. \u00a0","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/sankalphk","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/sankalp-hk-660254215"],"url":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/author\/sankalp\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/626983"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/34"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=626983"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/626983\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":626994,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/626983\/revisions\/626994"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/626989"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=626983"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=626983"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=626983"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
