Overview

  • Jannik Sinner beat Felix Auger-Aliassime 6-4, 7-6 (4) to capture Paris and secure his fifth title of 2025.
  • He did not drop a set all week, highlighted by a 6-0, 6-1 semifinal over an impaired Alexander Zverev.
  • Zverev said his ankle swelled after the Medvedev quarter-final and will consult his Munich surgeon, putting his ATP Finals status in doubt.
  • Carlos Alcaraz’s early defeat to Cameron Norrie opened the door for Sinner’s return to No. 1.
  • Auger-Aliassime’s run moved him into the final Turin qualifying spot, though the last berth is not yet clinched.
