World No. 1 Jannik Sinner has become the youngest player to win both hard court Grand Slams in the same year after the Italian won his first US Open by beating No. 12 Taylor Fritz for his second major title on Sunday afternoon 6-3, 6-4, 7-5.
Bet with Bet365The 23-year-old Italian delivered an outstanding performance on Sunday afternoon at the Arthur Ashe Stadium hardcourt in his clash with Jannik Sinner. He is currently on an 11-match win streak since his victory in the Cincinnati Open.
The world No. 1, Sinner, easily advanced through the U.S. Open brackets despite the news that he had tested positive for an anabolic steroid earlier this year. This clouded what should have been his 2024 coronation as one of the game's great young stars. The International Tennis Integrity Agency determined that Sinner had accidentally ingested the substance and chose not to suspend him.
The newly-crowned US Open champion, in an emotional speech, explains how much his family has supported him to victory that culminated in his dominant performance.
'This title for me means so much as the last period of my career has not been easy, my team who supports me everyday and the people close to me, I love tennis and practice a lot for this kind of stage but also realisee off the court there is alife I would like to dedicate this to.
