Jannik Sinner continues to make history in the world of tennis. Delivering a masterclass performance, the Italian sensation defeated Alexander Zverev in straight sets (6-3, 7-6, 6-3) to claim his second consecutive Australian Open title and the third Grand Slam of his career. The match, lasting two hours and 42 minutes, showcased Sinner’s remarkable mental resilience and technical brilliance, overcoming physical challenges and one of the toughest competitors on the tour.
The final was a testament to Sinner’s dominance, as he immediately took control with his flawless serve and a strategic approach that dismantled Zverev’s rhythm. Despite the German’s powerful serves, which often exceeded 200 km/h, Sinner never faced a break point. Instead, he exploited Zverev’s weaknesses, forcing errors and varying his play with unexpected drop shots and pinpoint accuracy.
“This victory belongs to my team and the fans who have supported me every step of the way. Winning here in Melbourne again is an incredible feeling,” Sinner said after the match, visibly moved.
With this triumph, Sinner becomes the first Italian to win three Grand Slam titles, surpassing Nicola Pietrangeli’s record. At just 23 years old, he proves to be not only a rising star but also one of the most reliable champions in modern tennis.
