Jannik Sinner Sets New Record at Miami Open

Historic Victory for Jannik Sinner

Jannik Sinner made headlines by breaking a world record previously held by Novak Djokovic during his round of 64 match against Damir Džumhur from Bosnia and Herzegovina at the Miami Open on March 20. The Italian player secured a swift victory with a score of 6-3, 6-3 in just 70 minutes. Sinner is aiming for his third consecutive ATP Masters 1000 title, having recently clinched the Indian Wells Masters trophy earlier this month. He also triumphed at the Paris Masters last October, winning both tournaments without losing a single set.

Jannik Sinner Creates History

Chasing Djokovic's Record

Jannik Sinner Eyes Another Novak Djokovic Record

With 24 consecutive set wins, Sinner has matched Djokovic's record for the most consecutive sets won in ATP Masters 1000 tournaments. Djokovic set this record in 2016, which was later broken by Jiri Vesely. Other notable players with over 20 consecutive set wins include Carlos Alcaraz (21), Rafael Nadal, and Andy Murray (20 each).

As the world No. 2, Sinner has the opportunity to surpass Djokovic's record on March 22 when he competes against Corentin Moutet in the Round of 32. To achieve this remarkable milestone, Sinner must win the first set, which would make him the first player to win 25 sets in a row in Masters 1000 events. His last set loss occurred during the 2025 Shanghai Masters, where he retired in the third set after losing the second set to Tallon Griekspoor.
