Overview
- Jannik Sinner beat Jiri Lehecka 6-4, 6-4 in Sunday's Miami Open final to secure the Indian Wells–Miami “Sunshine Double.”
- The Sunshine Double means winning Indian Wells and Miami in the same season, and Sinner is the first to do it without dropping a set at either event.
- A roughly 90-minute rain delay halted the second set, yet Sinner controlled the key moments with his serve, winning 92% of first-serve points and saving all three break points.
- The title lifts Sinner to 12,400 ATP points, cutting Alcaraz's lead to 1,190 on the ranking list published Monday.
- Montecarlo now offers a clear opening because Alcaraz is defending 1,000 points there while Sinner has none, which means a title for Sinner would bring a ranking switch.
