Overview
- Jannik Sinner, who won 6-3, 7-6 (7-4) on Saturday, advanced to face Jiri Lehecka in the Miami Open final.
- Alexander Zverev said a missed overhead at 4-4 in the second-set tiebreak decided the key moment of the match.
- Sinner has now won 32 straight sets at Masters-1000 events, keeping alive a bid to sweep Indian Wells and Miami in the same year, last done by Roger Federer in 2017.
- The result marks Sinner’s seventh straight win over Zverev, continuing a matchup trend that has halted several of Zverev’s deep runs.
- Zverev will return to No. 3 in the rankings after a swing where a more aggressive style carried him to the semifinals at both Indian Wells and Miami for the first time.
