In a historic men's singles final at the Australian Open, Jannik Sinner showcased extraordinary resilience by overcoming a two-set deficit to defeat Daniil Medvedev 3-6, 3-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-3. The victory marks Sinner's first Grand Slam title and is the first Australian Open final since 2005 not featuring Nadal, Djokovic, or Federer. Medvedev, who previously lost to Rafa Nadal in a five-setter in 2022, became the first men's player to lose two Grand Slam finals when two sets up. Sinner's triumph breaks Medvedev's impeccable hard court slam record, and the Italian's impressive performance drew praise from both players.
