With his triumph at Wimbledon, Jannik Sinner set a crazy record.

With his triumph at Wimbledon, Jannik Sinner has set a record that since 1970, when the first ATP Finals, then called the Masters, was held, no tennis player had ever achieved on the men’s circuit.

The South Tyrolean star from Sexten/Sesto Pusteria is the first to hold three Grand Slam tournament titles, the ATP Finals title, and the Davis Cup at the same time: an incredible and enormously valuable record.

Sinner in fact won in September 2024 the U.S. Open by beating the U.S. Taylor Fritz in the final, and he repeated against the same opponent in the final tournament of the men’s circuit in Turin.

Then Jannik dragged Italy to win its second consecutive Davis Cup, then, in January this year, the triumph at the Australian Open, in the final over Alexander Zverev.

Finally, after at Roland Garros he had to surrender despite having a two-set lead against Carlos Alcaraz, at Wimbledon he instead annihilated the defending champion Spaniard in the final, defeating him in four sets.

And to think that Sinner came within one point of winning in Paris as well, otherwise the record he has just set, already insane in itself, would have been even more so, and would have earned him the Slam, albeit a spurious one because it was completed in two different calendar years.
