- Italian wins maiden grand slam 3-6, 3-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-3
- Fatigue sets in for Medvedev after going two sets up
As Jannik Sinner trailed by two sets in his first grand slam final, his hopes of attaining the ultimate dream were fading quickly. He looked completely lost. Between points he shared long, searching looks with his team. At one point, he even told them that he was “dead”. Sinner’s inexperience sharply contrasted with the nous of Daniil Medvedev, who seemed to know exactly what to do.
But Sinner dug far deeper than ever before, and somehow he gradually managed to turn his fortunes around.
