2026 Australian Open Finals Match Used Net | Alcaraz 1st Australian Open title and completed career Grand Slam

Directly from the Australian Open.

Sotheby’s is proud this match used net from the 2026 Australian Open Men’s Singles Final, the championship match in which Carlos Alcaraz captured his first Australian Open title and completed the career Grand Slam.

Contested before a capacity crowd at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne on 1 February 2026, the final saw Alcaraz overcome ten-time Australian Open champion Novak Djokovic, 2–6, 6–2, 6–3, 7–5, in a contest that symbolized the passing of the torch between two generations of tennis greatness. After dropping the opening set, Alcaraz responded with his trademark blend of explosive athleticism, fearless shot-making, and remarkable composure to secure one of the defining victories of his career. The triumph not only delivered his maiden Australian Open crown but also established him as the youngest player in history to complete the career Grand Slam, cementing his place among the sport’s all-time elite.

As the opening Grand Slam of the season, the Australian Open has long provided the stage for tennis’ most enduring moments. The 2026 championship stands among the tournament’s most significant, pairing one of the greatest champions in history against the sport’s brightest young star in a final that marked the beginning of a new chapter in men’s tennis.
