PARIS—Bad starts in Grand Slam finals are nothing new for Carlos Alcaraz, and each time it’s happened he has won the tournament anyway.

But not in such dramatic style as Sunday’s French Open final, when the Spaniard rallied from two sets down and saved three match points to beat top-ranked Jannik Sinner 4–6, 6–7 (4), 6–4, 7–6 (3), 7–6 (10–2) for his fifth major title in as many finals.
