Jannik Sinner beat Alexander Zverev in emphatic fashion to successfully defend his Australian Open title in a one-sided men's final.
Jannik Sinner blew Alexander Zverev away to defend his Australian Open crown Jannik Sinner produced a relentless performance to win 6-3 7-6 6-3 and successfully defend his Australian Open title in a one-sided men’s final against Alexander Zverev . Twenty-four hours on from Madison Keys’ victory over Aryna Sabalenka in the women’s showpiece, Sinner wrestled the early momentum in his favour to break Zverev and take the first set 6-3 in Melbourne.
Four successive mini-breaks followed as the momentum swung back and forth, before Sinner held his nerve to pull away and secure a two-set lead, hitting the line with a sumptuous forehand to seal the decisive point. The sight of Zverev smashing his racket against the floor will surely only have galvanised Sinner further and the Italian simply refused to take his foot off the gas at the start of the third.
