Overview
- Sinner beat Novak Djokovic in straight sets, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4, on Friday with early breaks in each set and never surrendering his own serve.
- The Italian backed his win with powerful serving, producing 16 aces and winning almost all first‑serve points while facing virtually no break points for nearly two hours.
- Djokovic said he has no immediate plans to retire and would like to return to Wimbledon “at least one more time,” even as the loss marked his fifth defeat in six Grand Slam semifinals.
- Alexander Zverev advanced to the final after beating British wildcard Arthur Fery 7-6(0), 6-2, 6-4 and arrives off a French Open title seeking back‑to‑back majors.
- The match deepened Sinner’s recent edges—he now leads Djokovic 7-5 head‑to‑head and holds a 10-4 lead over Zverev—while capping Sinner’s comeback arc after a mid‑season collapse at Roland Garros.
