Jannik Sinner unlocks special record to set alongside Big Three after superb 2023 season....so far
ATPFriday, 24 November 2023 at 10:00
Italy’s young tennis star Jannik Sinner joined an elite list
of players to achieve something spectacular in a single season.
The 22-year-old is regarded as one of the most highly-rated young
tennis players in the men’s singles category alongside Spain’s Carlos Alcaraz
and America’s Ben Shelton.
After having an impressive season, Sinner joined an elite
list of players to win nine or more matches in a single season against top-five
players since 2000. The only other players to do that in the last 23 years are
Serbia’s Novak Djokovic, Spain’s Rafael Nadal and Switzerland’s Roger Federer.
Sinner’s season came to a rather disappointing end as he
lost in the final of the recently concluded ATP Finals in Turin where he lost
to Djokovic in the final in straight sets with a score of 6-3, 6-3.
Sinner ended up winning four ATP titles in 2023. His first triumph
came in February as he defeated America’s Maxime Cressy in the final in
straight sets with a score of 7-6, 6-3 in Montpellier.
He then won the
Canada Open after defeating Australia’s Alex de Minaur in the final with a score
of 6-4, 6-1. Last month, Sinner defeated Russia’s Daniil Medvedev with a score
of 7-6, 7-6 to lift the China Open. His last title triumph in 2023 came in Vienna
where he got the better of Medvedev once again with a score of 7-6, 4-6, 6-3.
