Sinner Retains ATP Finals Title Over Alcaraz, Completing a Perfect Turin

Alcaraz ends No. 1 with an MRI pending on a right hamstring issue.

Overview

  • Jannik Sinner beat Carlos Alcaraz 7-6(4), 7-5 in Turin to defend the ATP Finals crown.
  • Sinner did not drop a set for the second straight year at the event, a first in tournament history, and extended his indoor hard-court winning streak to 31 matches.
  • Alcaraz received right thigh/hamstring treatment during the final and traveled for a scan ahead of Spain’s Davis Cup ties, with his availability to be determined by the results.
  • Sinner and his coaches highlighted targeted post‑US Open adjustments, including a faster, riskier serve and added variety, which proved decisive against his chief rival.
  • The season was defined by the Sinner‑Alcaraz duopoly, with the pair splitting the biggest titles as Sinner rebounded from a 90‑day clostebol-related suspension to reach all four major finals.
