Italian Jannik Sinner, ranked first in the world, won the Cincinnati Tennis Championship title after defeating American Frances Tiafoe in two sets to none in the final match held today.
Sinner managed to win 7-6 and 6-2, and after needing three sets to overcome Russian Andrey Rublev and German Alexander Zverev in the quarter-finals and semi-finals, he struggled in the first set against Tiafoe, as both players were unable to break the other’s serve until they resorted to a tie-break, which Italian Sinner won in his favor.
With this victory, Sinner has added his fifth title this season to his tally, after winning the Australian Open, in addition to his titles in Rotterdam, Miami and Halle. It is worth noting that Sinner is the only player to have won two titles in the Masters 1000 tournaments in 2024.
