The men’s singles finals at the Italian Open began on an exciting note. The first set was a closely fought affair, but Alcaraz managed to pull ahead 7-6(5). From there, the Spaniard went on to dominate the second game, clinching a 6-1 win to outdo Sinner on home ground.

After the match, Jannik Sinner thanked all the people who came to the event to cheer him on and revealed that his brother, Marc, had opted for the F1 Imola Grand Prix instead of the Italian Open, saying,

“A lot of friends of mine are here. My brother couldn’t be here. He’s watching the racing (Formula 1). Thanks to all the people who came to this tournament. You gave me a lot of energy and encouragement. I tried today but that’s all I had. It was a good test. Thanks to everyone”

For Sinner, this outing in Rome marks the first time he has been in action since returning from his doping ban. Despite a strong performance, his defeat to Carlos Alcaraz puts an end to the Italian's 26-match winning streak.

After the match, Sinner thanked his team for their support, saying,

“I’d like to thank my team. There have been a few months that weren’t easy. It’s been a great result just to be here in the final. We trained a lot. We can be proud of the results we achieved. We didn’t win the final but we are happy with this trophy. It’s been a great success since we came here.”

Up next, Jannik Sinner was scheduled to play at the Hamburg Open but has opted out of the event. Instead fans will now get to see him in action at the French Open where he will hope to claim his fourth Grand Slam title.
