Jannik Sinner’s remarkable winning run in hard-court grand slam matches is over. The Italian had claimed victory in 27 consecutive matches across the Australian and US Opens before Carlos Alcaraz dethroned him in a crushing win at Flushing Meadows.
Alcaraz, who claimed the US Open title with a 6-2 3-6 6-1 6-4 win, explained how defeat to Sinner in the Wimbledon final had triggered a reshaping of his training regime and a performance of fiery serves and excellent stroke play ensured he came out on top.
