Highlights Jannik Sinner vs Felix Auger-Aliassime:

The first set was quite balanced when Aliassime played with great effort, saving three break-points in a row and creating many uncomfortable shots.

However, when the score was 5-6, he suddenly had a problem with his left leg, could not move flexibly and let Sinner take advantage of the opportunity to break the game, closing the first set 7-5.

After receiving medical attention, Aliassime tried to come back but could not maintain his original form. The 24-year-old had to continue treatment in the second set, allowing Sinner to easily control the game and win 6-2.

Statistically, Sinner won 89% of his first serve points and did not face any break points.

This victory helps him extend his 27-match winning streak on indoor courts, while maintaining his hope of competing for the year-end world number 1 position with Carlos Alcaraz.

“Winning the opening match is always important. I hope Felix will recover fully soon,” Sinner said after his opening match at the 2025 ATP Finals.
