Following Nicola Pietrangeli, who captured the 1959 and 1960 Roland Garros championships back-to-back, and Adriano Panatta, who triumphed at Roland Garros in 1976, Sinner is the third Italian player to win a Grand Slam men’s singles title.
Even though Jannik Sinner’s Australian Open success is a testament to his skill, his legacy is cemented by more than just the trophy. In the final four of the Australian Open this year, he broke Novak Djokovic’s six-year stranglehold. He then overcame Daniil Medvedev after trailing two sets to earn his first Grand Slam title.
The 22-year-old Italian gave his parents credit for their steadfast encouragement. Sinner said more of his parents and brother Marc’s support when he later met with reporters at Melbourne Park. He said:
They are the perfect parents.”
Mentioning his brother, he said:
And also my brother, he brings me honesty throughout the whole career I’m going through.”
