Nitto ATP Finals: Jannik Sinner wrapped up his stellar season in style with a tour-leading eighth title of the year by capturing his maiden Nitto ATP Finals trophy.

The home favourite produced a near-flawless performance to down Taylor Fritz 6-4, 6-4 and become the first Italian champion in the tournament’s 55-year history.

Moreover, with his straight-sets triumph, Sinner became the first player to win the ATP Finals without dropping a set since Ivan Lendl in 1986, highlighting the ruthless season, which began with victory at the Australian Ope and concluded with his first title on home soil.
