Jannik Sinner underlined why he is the world's best men's player by securing back-to-back Australian Open titles with a merciless victory over Alexander Zverev.
The Italian top seed delivered in the decisive moments to win 6-3 7-6 (7-4) 6-3 against the second seed.
Despite an ongoing doping case hanging over him, Sinner has been able to block out the noise to claim a third Grand Slam title.
After sealing victory with a composed cross-court winner on his first championship point, the 23-year-old calmly raised his hands into the air before walking over to celebrate with his team. "It's an incredible tournament for me, I hope I can keep it going," said Sinner, who is the first Italian player to win three majors.
