Overview
- Jannik Sinner routed Alexander Zverev 6-1, 6-2 in the Madrid Open final on Sunday, closing out the title in 57 minutes.
- The world No. 1 became the first man to win five consecutive ATP Masters 1000 events and has 28 straight wins at this level, improving to 30-2 this season.
- Sinner did not face a break point, converted all four of his own, and won 93% of points behind his first serve in the one-sided final.
- Rome is next, where a title would complete the Career Golden Masters for Sinner, who has now won eight of the nine Masters 1000 tournaments.
- With Carlos Alcaraz sidelined by a wrist injury, Sinner is the clear favorite for the clay swing, though he says he needs recovery time after a packed run.
