Jannik Sinner’s Fifth Straight Masters 1000 Title Puts Djokovic Record in Sight

He heads to Rome needing four more wins to break Novak Djokovic’s 31-match Masters streak.

Overview

  • Sinner overpowered Alexander Zverev 6-1, 6-2 in the Madrid Open final, firing eight aces and winning 93% of his first‑serve points.
  • With the Madrid crown, he became the first man to win five consecutive ATP Masters 1000 tournaments.
  • His streak at this level stands at 28 straight wins dating to the 2025 Paris Masters, leaving him four victories short of breaking the all‑time mark.
  • Tennis Channel analysts Steve Weissman, Sam Querrey and John Isner predict he will surpass the record, with Isner urging rest to guard the run.
  • Sinner has beaten Zverev nine times in a row, a run that equals Roger Federer’s longest streak against a fellow top‑five player since 1990.
