Yanik Siner beat Alexander Zverev and became the champion of the Australian Open for the second time in a row

Yanik sinner got a second consecutive Australia's open championship Championship Sunday, never colliding with any break-point and using the whole game to overheat and disappoint Alexander Zverev For the win in the finals 6-3, 7-6 (4), 6-3.

Siner, a 23-year-old Italian, is the youngest man who left Melbourne Park with a trophy two consecutive years after Jim Courier in 1992-93.

The sinner rose to 1st place in June last year, staying there every week since then, and the gap between him and the 2nd number of the beast rating was revealed as it may be on the Rod Laver Arena. This was the first Australian Open final between men who ranked 1st and 2nd since 2019 when Novak Djokovic under number 1 wins Raphael Nadal under number 2 – Also in direct sets.

That's how much the sinner has dominated from the beginning of last season: he won three of the five major tournaments, including the US Open in September, and his record for this period is 80-6 with nine tournament titles. Its current series without defeat covers 21 matches since last year.

It seems that the only thing that has been overshadowed for the last 12 months for the sinner is a doping case in which it was cleared by the decision that the world anti -doping agency appealed. Last March, he twice gave a positive result on anabolic steroids, but accused the accidental impact involving two members of his team, which were later fired. The sinner was originally rehabilitated in August; The WADA appeals are scheduled for April.

While the sinner became the eighth man in the open era (which began in 1968), who started his career 3-0 in the finals of the big helmet, the beast became the seventh with a score of 0-3, adding this defeat to the defeat At the US Open 2020 and in the French Open 2024.

Those earlier failures came for five sets. This competition was not so close. Not at all.

In fact, there was only one moment that felt as if he had a hint of tension. It was at the end of the second set, to which the beast remained two points when he led 5-4 and reached 30 on Sinee. But the point of break – and the specified point – never came.

The beast did not get closer, dropping the next four points, making 5. Then Sinner came out with the subsequent tie break. No wonder this: in the last two weeks he went 4-0 in the decisive sets and captured 16 of his last 18.

A year ago, the sinner experienced a lot more problems to earn his first helmet tournament, he needed to bypass Novak Djokovic, who lost one set in his semifinals against the beast on Friday due to a breaking tendon before eliminating the deficit in two sets. In the finals against the US Open 2021 champion Daniel Medvedev.

Beating the beast allowed the sinner to become the first person since Nadal At the French Open in 2005 and 2006, to repeat the victory in the same tournament in the same year, after its first title of great helmet.
