completed the prestigious 'Sunshine Double'—winning both the Indian Wells and
Miami tournaments in the same season.
¨ This accomplishment
places him in an elite group of tennis players and underscores his growing
dominance on the ATP Tour.
Historic Sunshine Double Achievement
¨ Sinner has become the first player since Roger Federer in 2017 to win both tournaments in a single season. Notably, he is the first player to achieve this feat without dropping a single set across both tournaments.
¨ This marks a significant milestone in his career, as the double victory also saw him claim his maiden Indian Wells title.
