Is the TCP 3-Way handshake always needed for establishing a client/host connection?

I have been studying layers 1-3.

If a client is establishing a connection with example.com, I am starting to understand the process of DNS, frames, ARP, packets and routing.

But I don't see where the famous TCP 3 way handshake falls into the picture. Isn't a client/host connection already established once an ARP broadcast is resolved?
