Jannik Sinner defeats Alexander Zverev in straight sets to win Madrid Open

Jannik Sinner defeats Alexander Zverev in straight sets to win Madrid Open, becoming first player to win five consecutive ATP Masters 1000 titles.

"I think there is a lot of work behind it. A lot of dedication and sacrifice I put in every day. - Jannik Sinner"

Madrid, May 3

Italy's Jannik Sinner defeated Germany's Alexander Zverev in straight sets to lift the Madrid Open title and become the first-ever player to win five consecutive Masters 1000 titles, according to the ATP website. The No. 1 player in the ATP Rankings eased to a 6-1, 6-2 triumph inside Manolo Santana Stadium on Sunday.

Sinner, who has dropped just two sets across his five title runs (in Paris last November and Indian Wells, Miami, Monte-Carlo and Madrid in 2026), did not face a break point en route to his ninth consecutive ATP head-to-head win against Zverev.

After the match, Sinner said the achievement of five consecutive Masters 1000 titles reflects his hard work, dedication and daily sacrifices, adding that while the success means a lot, he knows results will eventually dip as part of the sport.

"I think there is a lot of work behind it. A lot of dedication and sacrifice I put in every day. Obviously, it means a lot to me, seeing these results. At some point, results are going to be down, which is normal," Sinner said as quoted by the ATP website.

Sinner said he's proud of staying confident and is working with discipline every day. He credited his team's support, adding that the success means a lot to all of them.

"I'm very happy that I've continued to believe in myself. I'm showing up every day, at every practice session, trying to put in the right work with the right discipline. To do so, you need to have the right team behind you, which I have. I'm very happy about me, but also the team, and this means a lot to all of us," said Sinner.

Honestly, this Sinner guy is something special. The way he plays with such precision and calmness - it's like watching Federer in his prime. India needs to learn from his discipline and dedication! 🇮🇳🎾

Impressive run, but let's be real - Zverev was completely off his game today. Too many unforced errors. Sinner is great but this wasn't his toughest test. Still, can't take away from the achievement.

As a tennis fan from India, I'm just amazed at how consistent Sinner is. Our players should study his training methods. That forehand is a weapon! And his humility in interviews is refreshing. 🙌

I love how Sinner keeps his feet on the ground despite all this success. The way he credited his team shows real character. This is what makes champions - not just talent but the right attitude. Zverev needs to regroup, he's still a great player.

Five Masters titles in a row is just crazy. The Big 3 era had some great runs but this is next level. Tennis is in good hands with Sinner and Alcaraz leading the next generation. Can't wait for the French Open!
