Jannik Sinner has a goal never achieved by anyone

Either in Madrid (if he decides to participate) or Rome, Jannik Sinner is facing a historic possibility, something that has never been seen in modern tennis: to win five consecutive ATP Masters 1000 tournaments. It would be an unprecedented feat, destined to redefine the very limits of continuity at the highest level.

The world number one comes to this juncture after an impressive sequence of successes. The string began in November 2025 with a triumph in Paris, and continued in 2026 with victories in Indian Wells, Miami, and Monte Carlo. Four tournaments in a row, an achievement that had so far only been achieved by two absolute giants such as Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal (the Serbian three times, the Spaniard once).

Sinner, however, has not merely matched these holy monsters: he now has a real chance to surpass them, pushing himself where no one has ever gone before. The statistic that makes his season even more impressive is another: he has already won seven of the nine Masters 1000s on the calendar, leaving only Madrid and Rome uncovered.

These two tournaments, on European clay, thus represent not only a missing target, but also the possible stage for an all-time record. Should he succeed in winning either (or even both), Sinner would not only complete his own collection, but also write a whole new page in tennis history.
