This Sunday at 9:30 a.m., Jannik Sinner, defending champion and world No. 1, will face Alexander Zverev, world No. 2, in the final of the Australian Open. A duel at the top full of stakes: a potential double for the Italian or a first Grand Slam coronation for the German.
With their respective victories in the semi-finals, against Shelton (7-6(2), 6-2, 6-2) for Sinner and against Djokovic (7-6(5).ab) for Zverev, the n World No. 1 and 2 will compete for the title this Sunday at 9:30 a.m. A duel at the top, deserved in view of the career of the two players. The Italian was almost impeccable, dropping only two short sets during his round, against Schoolkate and Rune. He was also quick to take out the local De Minaur in three sets. Opposite, same pattern for the German with only one set dropped against Humbert then Paul. Zverev, however, has the chance to arrive a little fresher physically since he benefited from Djokovic’s retirement at the end of the first round.
Sinner comes in with dripping confidence
23 consecutive victories, this is the series that is being achieved Jannik Sinner since his defeat in the final in Beijing last October against Carlos Alcaraz. Since the Italian is a real steamroller, no one is capable of bringing down the world No. 1. Alexander Zverev knows, he is facing a mountain, to say the least. But who other than the world No. 2, who is surely playing the tennis of his life, to thwart the odds? The two players have already faced each other six times on the circuit, with Zverev ahead, 4-2. This final of the 2025 Australian Open therefore promises to be tough, indecisive, and who will see, whatever happens, a piece of history being written: the Italian to sign a formidable double or the German lift a Grand Slam title for the first time in his career. The stage is set.
