Jannik Sinner seeks Master’s title: his track record at ATP Finals

Jannik Sinner is set to compete for the third time at the ATP Finals in Turin. Tonight the world No. 1 will face Australian Alex De Minaur, No. 9, against whom he has won seven out of seven matches, surrendering only one set.

Sinner debutedì in the Piedmontese capital in 2021, when he was a reserve and took over for the injured Matteo Berrettini. He played two matches, in the first beating Poland’s Hubert Hurkacz 6-2 6-2, in the second he succumbed 6-0 6-7 7-6 to Russia’s Daniil Medvedev.

Last year, on the other hand, he made all the fans at Inalpi Arena and all of Italy dream. In the round robin he beat the Greek Stefanos Tsitsipas with a double 6-4, then Novak Djokovic 7-5 6-7 7-6 and finally the Dane Holger Rune 6-2 5-7 6-4.

Qualified with full points for the semifinals, he also defeated Medvedev 6-3 6-7 6-1 and in the finals found Djokovic, whom he could have ousted from the tournament by losing the’last match to Rune being already qualified, and instead succumbed to the Serb with a double 6-3.

This year Nole isn’t there’è but his opponents are fierce, yet Sinner can ring up another record: to become the first Italian to win the last tournament of the year reserved for the world’s top 8 tennis players, what’s more, in front of his fans.
