ATP Live Race To Turin: World No. 1 Jannik Sinner toppled American No. 1 Taylor Fritz, 6-3, 6-4, 7-5, to lift his first US Open crown and second major title.

With his two-hour, 16-minute win, Sinner became just the fourth man to win the Australian Open and US Open on hard courts in the same season, after Mats Wilander, Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic.

Sinner has now won a Tour-leading six titles in a stunning 2024 season and has moved 4,105 points clear of his nearest challenger Alexander Zverev in the battle to claim ATP Year-End No.1, according to ATP stats.
