World No.2 Jannik Sinner secured a spot in the Miami Open final by defeating Alexander Zverev 6-3, 7-6(4) after recently clinching the Indian Wells title. Sinner, on a remarkable streak, has now won 32 consecutive sets at ATP Masters 1000 events.
In the upcoming final on Sunday, the Italian player will face Czech Jiri Lehecka, who reached his first Masters 1000 final by beating Arthur Fils 6-2, 6-2. Sinner aims to capitalize on World No.1 Carlos Alcaraz’s early exit to potentially claim the Miami Open title and close the gap in the rankings.
Expressing his joy at reaching the final, Sinner emphasized his focus on delivering top-notch tennis. He stands on the brink of achieving the ‘Sunshine Double,’ a feat last accomplished by Roger Federer in 2017, by potentially winning both Indian Wells and Miami titles.
Sinner’s dominance over Zverev continued with this victory, marking his seventh consecutive win against the German player. With a strong performance in the semifinals, Sinner showcased his resilience and skill, setting the stage for an intense final showdown against Lehecka.
