Relive how Jannik Sinner won the Australian Open
MELBOURNE, Australia — Jannik Sinner beat Alexander Zverev 6-3, 7-6(4), 6-3 in the Australian Open final at Melbourne Park Sunday.
The No. 1 seed prevailed over the No. 2 seed in a match ultimately decided by Zverev’s discomfort when coming forward, Sinner’s underrated first serve, and a kiss of death from the net.
It is Sinner’s second consecutive Australian Open title and his third Grand Slam singles title. Zverev has now played three Grand Slam singles finals, losing them all.
