The Italian Jannik Sinner delivered a flawless performance, not dropping a single set throughout the tournament—a feat previously achieved only by Ivan Lendl in 1986 under the current format, which includes round-robin matches, semifinals, and the final.
In the championship match, Sinner defeated American Taylor Fritz with a convincing 6-4, 6-4 scoreline, mirroring the result of their group-stage encounter.
This victory holds special significance for the Italian, who fell short in last year’s final against Novak Djokovic.
Now, he not only secures the prestigious title but also makes history as the first Italian to win the event, solidifying his position as the undisputed leader of the ATP rankings.
The win against Fritz also recalls their clash in the US Open final, further asserting Sinner’s dominance over the American. This achievement marks his 70th victory in an extraordinary season, though his campaign isn’t over yet.
