- Jannik Sinner won Australian Open and Miami Open in the same year.
- Miami Open victory was Sinner's thrid title this year.
- Sinner’s coach said that the 22-year-old is enjoying both his life and his tennis career.
Sinner is the first player since Roger Federer in 2017 to win the men’s singles titles at both the Australian Open and the Miami Open in the same year.
The Miami Open victory marked Sinner’s third title of the year.
The Italian player demonstrated exceptional form as he comfortably defeated Daniil Medvedev in the semi-finals and Grigor Dimitrov in the Miami Open final.
Sinner also improved his season record to 22-1 and climbed to a career-high world ranking of number two.
“This is a special moment,” Sinner said after defeating Dimitrov 6-3 6-1.
"You never know if this is the last time or not. So you have to enjoy this for one day, and now a new chapter is coming, clay-court season is coming, so completely different.
“Let’s see how I will play from now on. But for sure, the hard-court season until now has been very good.”
Sinner has had a remarkable season so far, including a victory at the Australian Open in January. His only loss in 2024 was to Carlos Alcaraz in the semi-finals at Indian Wells.
“Being number two, it’s an amazing feeling,” Sinner said.
“I never thought to come to this point. I come from a very normal family. My dad is still working, as my mom, too. For me sport is one thing and life is different.”
Darren Cahill, Sinner’s coach, commented that the 22-year-old is enjoying both his life and his tennis career.
“He appreciates every single moment that is happening to him, but he’s also got his feet on the ground knowing it’s just a sport, it’s just a tennis match,” Cahill said.
"Whilst he’s professional in everything he does, he enjoys his life. He’s a normal 22-year-old kid. There’s a lot to learn from him, a lot of good to learn from both him and Carlos. I think they’re very similar in many, many ways.
"That’s why I think tennis is in great hands at the moment with the likes of those two and many other players coming through that are going to carry the torch through a generation we have been so fortunate to sit through the last 20 years.
“It’s important to have these types of sports people coming through.”
