With this triumph, the teenage tennis sensation climbed to the top of the ATP list and became the youngest world number one in history at 19 years and four months. The previous record holder was the Australian Leighton Hewitt, who in 2001 became the leader of the tennis circus at the age of 20 years and nine months.

Alcaraz reached the third triumph in the third mutual duel with the Norwegian after almost three and a half hours of play.
