Jannik Sinner dominated Alexander Zverev in the Australian Open final, winning 6-3 7-6(4) 6-3 to become Italy's first player to win three Grand Slam crowns. Sinner's victory marked a historic achievement for Italian tennis, surpassing Nicola Pietrangeli's record.

Though outplayed in every facet, Zverev held on white-knuckled to take the second set into a tiebreak.
