The season that the direct rivals in the world he was able to achieve, or his executioner face-to-face, the Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz, who won all three of his duels.
But the Italian Jannik Sinner maintained a high level longer, in more tournaments. There were 65 games won out of 71. 45 out of 48 on hard courts. He added his seventh course title at the Shanghai ATP Masters 1000, after the Australian Open, Rotterdam, Miami, Halle, Cincinnati and the US Open.
There are 17 professional crowns, he continues to 99, one away from the round of 100, the Serbian Novak Djokovic, 37 years old and world No. 4, the last victim of the transalpine, 23 years old. By 7-6 (4) and 6-3 in 1h.37′.
The Olympic champion and sports legend posed a tough challenge to the new leader, who stood his ground in a balanced first set, which he decided in his favor with a good tiebreak, a specialty of the house since he won 20 of the last 23 .
The sinner maintained a very high level of concentration and success, destroying the spirit and resistance of a Djokovic who was convinced of the superiority of an opponent who had surpassed him in the last three times, in 4 of the 5 most recent ties (4- 4) his record of confrontations.
Focused on the movements of both tennis players, Roger Federer and Carlos Alcaraz, sitting together in one of the boxes. Both ambassadors of the main sponsor of the tournament (Rolex) and the Murcian will travel directly from China to Riyad (Saudi Arabia) to compete, from October 16 to 19, the ‘Six Kings Slam’ exhibition, where he will be accompanied by Sinner and Djokovic, as well as Rafa Nadal.
A ‘break’ in the second set, 3-1 Sinner, definitely decided the battle for a new, brighter champion in Shanghai, who has enough fire to endure whatever it takes and impose his law quietly but without mercy
He ended up with an ace, a sign of his power. Great Sinful manifestation.
