The 20-year-old was just eight when Novak Djokovic claimed his first of three US Open titles, but now the pair are expected to lock horns for the grand prize at Flushing Meadows.
Alcaraz was the World No.1 going into this tournament, just 20 points ahead of Djokovic, but his 2,500 points will be wiped out if he fails to defend his title.
Novak's return to the tournament with zero points dropping means he will be the world No.1 regardless of results here, but another Alcaraz slam victory would be an eye-catching result to say the least.
Fans across the globe will be keen to track Alcaraz's progress keenly throughout the year as the final Grand Slam arrives.
