The Unreal Statistic of Sinner Against Top 20 Players
Since 2024, Sinner’s career seems to defy all logic, as his numbers are simply staggering. Having qualified for his fifth consecutive Grand Slam final, the Italian has also become the youngest player in the Open Era to reach the final of all four Grand Slam tournaments in a single season (24 years and 22 days).
This undeniable supremacy is explained by his remarkable consistency on the tour. The proof lies in his record against players ranked outside the top 20. Indeed, since the 2023 US Open, the world number one has won 80 of his 81 matches against this category of opponents.
Facing Alcaraz in the final at Flushing Meadows, the 24-year-old will be playing for his second consecutive title at the tournament, and his fourth consecutive on hard courts.
While this rivalry is on its way to becoming legendary, the two players can already boast being the second matchup in the Open Era to compete in three consecutive Grand Slam finals. The last such instance was Djokovic-Nadal from Wimbledon 2011 to Roland-Garros 2012.
