Jannik Sinner was simply unplayable in Melbourne this year. Of the seven games played on the title road won this Sunday at the Australian Open, the Transalpin conceded only two small sets. Only the Australian Tristan Schoolkate in the second round and then the Danish Holger Rune at the stage of the knockout stages knew how to upset the plans of the world number 1. Nicolas Jarry, Marcos Giron, Alex de Minaur, Ben Shelton then Alexander Zverev all underwent Jannik Sinner's law in three dry sleeves.

For Alexander Zverev, this final of the simple gentlemen of the 2025 edition of the Australian Open turned into a nightmare. Indeed, the German was completely inability to surprise Jannik Sinner on his service. The Italian thus won this final without conceding the slightest break ball, becoming the fourth player to achieve such a feat since 1991. He thus imitates Pete Sampras against Boris Becker in Wimbledon in 1995, Roger Federer against Mark Philippoussis in Wimbledon in 2003 but also Rafael Nadal against Kevin Anderson during the US Open in 2017.

If he had to wait for his third final in Masters 1000 to win his first title in this tournament category, in Toronto in 2023, Jannik Sinner is much more efficient in a big slam.
