Jannik Sinner beats Alexander Zverev in 3 sets to win second Australian Open in a row
Briefly

Jannik Sinner achieved his second consecutive Australian Open title, dominating the final against Alexander Zverev without facing a break point, clinching the match 6-3, 7-6 (4), 6-3. At 23, he became the youngest player to win back-to-back titles since Jim Courier. With a record of 80-6 and nine tournament titles in the past year, Sinner's performance has been exceptional. However, his recent doping controversy, where he was cleared of charges after testing positive for a trace amount of steroids, adds complexity to his achievements as he aims to defend his legacy in a scheduled hearing in April.
Sinner's victory showcased his dominance in men's tennis, remaining unbeaten for 21 matches, and solidifying his record as one of the sport's brightest stars.
His recent doping controversy raised questions about his integrity, yet Sinner, having been cleared, continues to perform at an astonishing level on the court.
