Italy made history once again as Jannik Sinner delivered a masterful performance to secure the Davis Cup title for the second consecutive year. Facing the Netherlands’ Tallon Griekspoor in the finals, Sinner dominated the match, leading Italy to a 2-0 victory and cementing their status as tennis powerhouses.
Match Highlights
Sinner, currently ranked in the ATP Top 5, showcased his all-court prowess against Griekspoor, sealing the match 6-3, 6-4. The Italian’s blistering forehands and impeccable movement proved too much for the Dutch player, who struggled to find his rhythm. This victory came on the heels of Lorenzo Musetti’s opening singles win against Botic van de Zandschulp, giving Italy a commanding lead in the best-of-three format.
“This is a moment of pride for our team and our country,” Sinner said during the trophy presentation. “Winning the Davis Cup last year was special, but defending it makes this victory even sweeter.”
