Overview
- Jannik Sinner defeated Felix Auger-Aliassime 6-4, 7-6 (4) to secure his first Paris Masters title and his fifth Masters 1000 crown.
- Sinner completed the tournament without dropping a set, faced no break points in the final, won 40 of 44 first-serve points, and stretched his indoor winning streak to 26 matches.
- The 1,000-point victory returns Sinner to the top of the ATP rankings on Monday, with the year-end No. 1 to be decided at the Nitto ATP Finals.
- Carlos Alcaraz remains close enough to finish year-end No. 1 depending on Turin results, where Sinner is the defending champion.
- Auger-Aliassime’s runner-up finish moved him to eighth in the Race but did not clinch an ATP Finals spot, leaving his qualification dependent on results this week in Metz and Athens against Lorenzo Musetti.
