Sinner shines to storm to Miami title

Spoiler:

Italian will rise to No. 2 in the PIF ATP Rankings on Monday
March 31, 2024

Jannik Sinner captures his second ATP Masters 1000 title on Sunday in Miami.
By ATP Staff
It was third time lucky for Jannik Sinner at the Miami Open presented by Itau on Sunday when the Italian defeated Grigor Dimitrov 6-3, 6-1 to win his first trophy at the hard-court event and his second ATP Masters 1000 crown overall.

The Italian suffered final defeats in South Florida in 2021 and 2023 but has shown he is a different beast in 2024, entering Sunday’s final holding a 21-1 record on the year. High in confidence, Sinner ensured history did not repeat itself on Sunday, producing a clean and aggressive performance to clinch his third title of the season after one hour and 14 minutes.

"I'm really proud obviously about the result," Sinner said. "I started off struggling a little bit this week. I haven't had so much time to adapt on this court, so I knew in the beginning that it's going to be tough. As the tournament went on, I felt better and better. Today's performance was really, really good. I'm just proud how I handled the situation. It was not easy, so it was a very, very good two weeks."

Sinner, who struck 15 winners according to Infosys ATP Stats, will rise to a career-high No. 2 in the PIF ATP Rankings following his triumph. The 22-year-old is the first Italian to climb to No. 2 and is the first Italian to claim multiple Masters 1000 titles. He has also extended his lead for most tour-level trophies by an Italian in the Open Era to 13.

Earlier this season, Sinner won his maiden major title at the Australian Open and clinched the crown at the ATP 500 in Rotterdam. He has now won two ATP Masters 1000 titles, having lifted the trophy in Toronto last season.

The player to beat this season, Sinner produced watertight tennis throughout the fortnight in Miami. He dropped just one set en route to the title and downed Daniil Medvedev 6-1, 6-2 in the last four. Sinner has now won 25 of his past 26 matches. The key to his success has been staying in the moment.

"Staying in the present moment. What it has been, it has been. I just try to improve... And also enjoying the moment. This is a special moment," Sinner said. "You never know if this is the last time or not. So you have to enjoy this for one day, and now a new chapter is coming, clay-court [season] is coming, so completely different. Let's see how I will play from now on. But for sure, the hard-court season until now has been very good."

Dimitrov also produced his best level in Miami. He attacked second serves and looked sharp at net to dispatch Top 10 stars Hubert Hurkacz, Carlos Alcaraz and Alexander Zverev en route to his third Masters 1000 final.

The Bulgarian, who is up to No. 9 in the PIF ATP Live Rankings following his run, fell in the championship match in Paris last year. His maiden triumph at this level came in 2017 when he won Cincinnati.

Earlier this season the 32-year-old broke his six-year wait for a title when he lifted the trophy in Brisbane. He entered the final against Sinner high in confidence and form but after a positive start, which led to him creating a break point in the third game, he could not live with Sinner's level. The Italian was the more consistent from the baseline and soaked up Dimitrov’s power to improve to 3-1 in the pair’s Lexus ATP Head2Head series.

In a tight first set, Sinner struggled to find his rhythm in the opening exchanges, with Dimitrov holding comfortably before he created the first break point opportunity of the match at 1-2, 30/40. After a lengthy exchange, Dimitrov could only push a forehand wide, with Sinner going on to hold.

The Italian then made his mark on the match, hitting a forehand pass to move to break point himself. Sinner took full advantage, striking a forehand winner down the line to move 3-2 ahead. The 22-year-old, who hit 10 winners in the set and committed eight unforced errors, was solid on serve to see home his lead.

Second Set
After taking the lead, Sinner raced away in the second set. He struck the ball aggressively down the middle of the court to limit angles for Dimitrov, who struggled to stop Sinner's momentum. The Italian won 100 per cent (8/8) of his second-serve points in the set and took time away from Dimitrov with his devastating hitting to overpower the Bulgarian.

By Craig O'Shannessy
Zero backhand groundstroke unforced errors. Zero.

Jannik Sinner defeated Grigor Dimitrov 6-3, 6-1 in the final of the Miami Open presented by Itau on Sunday on the back of one of the best backhand performances of his career. Sinner hit 57 backhand groundstrokes (excluding volleys) for the match and only missed two. Both errors were on the dead run and came off the end of his racquet. Everything else for the 72-minute final found the court.

Sinner won the opening set with a running backhand down the line passing shot winner that took the wind out of Dimitrov’s sails. Sinner won the match with another backhand down the line winner to put an exclamation point on a backhand performance for the ages. Sinner’s backhand numbers seem unreal compared to Dimitrov’s.

57 hit

Dimitrov Backhand Groundstrokes

14 errors
4 errors forced on the next shot
Sinner hit 34 backhand groundstrokes in the second set. He put every single one of them in the court. In contrast, Dimitrov hit 33 backhand groundstrokes and yielded seven errors. Sinner’s stunning backhand is built with a plethora of small adjusting steps to the ball, followed by stepping forward to the contact point with ideal spacing and timing. Sinner brings the racquet back low in his backswing which helps drop his body down behind the ball. He is always in position and always looking to hurt his opponent with some of the biggest backhands on Tour.

Baseline Performance
Dimitrov’s road to the final in Miami was built on improving his court position by stepping forward toward the baseline to take the ball early. It worked incredibly well to the final, as he was able to take away time from opponents in baseline exchanges. Unfortunately for him, it didn’t work at all against Sinner, as the Italian could absorb Dimitrov’s groundstrokes and send them back with interest.

Baseline Points Won
Sinner = 57% (33/58)
Dimitrov = 36% (18/50)

Dimitrov could only win one out of every three points from the baseline and only half (7/13) of his points at net. He was stuck between a rock and a hard place, unable to develop any tactic that would help him sink his teeth into the match.

The power level off the ground was basically identical for both players. Dimitrov averaged 80 mph off his forehand, while Sinner was at 79 mph. Both players averaged 69 mph off the backhand wing. Speed wasn’t Dimitrov’s problem. Sinner’s rock-solid footwork and immaculate technique simply wouldn’t break down, no matter how Dimitrov attacked it.

Family Values: Sinner 'back to work' after Miami title

Jannik Sinner may have been away from his family this fortnight at the Miami Open presented by Itau, but the Italian continues to make his parents proud. Asked about the significance of his first Miami title and his rise to No. 2 in the PIF ATP Rankings, the 22-year-old was quick to put his accomplishments into perspective.

"It's an amazing feeling. I never thought come to this point," he said after a 6-3, 6-1 final victory against Grigor Dimitrov. "I come from a very normal family. My dad is still working, and my mom, too. For me, sport is one thing, and life is different.

"I'm very happy to be in this position. I'm just enjoying every moment. These are special days winning a tournament. Doesn't matter what kind of tournament, it's a special day. It means a lot to me."


Just as his parents continue to work, Sinner is also eager to put in more hard yards even after his red-hot run of success. In discussing the importance of his maiden ATP Masters 1000 title in Toronto last year, he explained his ability to enjoy such milestone moments while still looking forward.

"When you win, you realise that it's really special, like this [Miami title]," he said. "But it's a moment. You live this moment, and then you're happy and then you fly to Cincinnati and the day after you play again.

"So there is not so much time to enjoy this. That's what I feel like that I have improved a lot. After [winning the title in] Australia, I live these moments, three or four days, and then after, I get back to work. It was the same in Rotterdam and it's the same here, because you don't have to time to enjoy.

"So this is also how I am, because maybe there are players who enjoy a little bit for longer. Me, I know that I don't have so much time to prepare for Monaco, so this is now obviously the next goal, trying to get confident with the clay."

Sinner plans to be back on the practice court on Thursday at the Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters. While he does not expect his parents to start joining him in his world travels on the ATP Tour, they may pay him a visit in Monaco, a short trip from their home nation of Italy.

"They will continue to do their life, and then I do my life," Sinner said with a smile. "For sure, my dad... in Indian Wells he came. There are, like, three, four tournaments where they could arrive. Monaco they might arrive. Rome and Vienna and the end of the year hopefully in Turin [at the Nitto ATP Finals] if I play. And that's it.

"They won't travel much, at least until now. I know them, so I also have my grandma and grandpa, which they have a certain age now [so my parents] want to stay close. We have the family at that home. They live in a beautiful place, so they have a good life there.

"For sure I miss personally a little bit the time with my parents, because I left home when I was 13, 14. So I haven't had so much time with them. Hopefully I can make this up in the future, but for me it's more important if they are happy. I know I'm happy. If I'm happy, they're happy. It's all good."

Sinner's coaches, Darren Cahill and Simone Vagnozzi, are also happy. Following their charge's Miami triumph, Cahill told the media that he still sees plenty of room for growth in the Italian. Ominously for the rest of the ATP Tour, Sinner agrees.

"I have a great team behind me who pushes me. We know what we have to improve," he said. "Now the clay season is coming, so usually I struggle there. Let's see what I can do this year."

No. 2 Jannik Sinner, +1 (Career High)
Sinner dropped just one set en route to the title at Hard Rock Stadium, where he became the first Italian to claim multiple Masters 1000 trophies. Having already won his first Grand Slam at January’s Australian Open and an ATP 500 in Rotterdam in Rotterdam, the Italian’s third tour-level triumph of the year has lifted him above rival Carlos Alcaraz to a career-high No. 2 in the PIF ATP Rankings.

No. 9 Grigor Dimitrov, +3
Despite a straight-sets defeat to Sinner in the championship match, Grigor Dimitrov continued his resurgence of the past 12 months with some high-class displays in Miami. The Bulgarian dispatched Top 10 opponents Hubert Hurkacz, Alcaraz and Alexander Zverev in consecutive matches to reach his third Masters 1000 final. He has returned to the Top 10 himself for the first time since October 2018 as a result.
