Jannik Sinner won the Miami Open, defeating Jiri Lehecka 6-4, 6-4 to complete the rare Sunshine Double after also winning Indian Wells. He became the first since 2017 to achieve the feat, and the first ever without dropping a set. Sinner extended his ATP Masters 1000 streak to 34 sets and improved his season record to 19-2 with a dominant display.

Miami: Jannik Sinner etched his name into history, clinching the Miami Open to complete the coveted 'Sunshine Double' in dominant fashion.

The Italian outclassed Jiri Lehecka 6-4, 6-4 in the hard-court final, becoming the first man since Roger Federer in 2017 to sweep both Indian Wells and Miami in the same season, and the first ever to achieve the feat without dropping a single set across the two tournaments.

Sinner stretched his streak to 34 consecutive sets won at the ATP Masters 1000 level, a run that began at last year's Paris Masters, while improving his season record to an impressive 19-2.

"It means a lot to me. [Winning] the Sunshine Double for the first time, it's incredible. It's something I never would've thought [to win] because it's difficult to achieve. We made it somehow, so I'm very happy," Sinner said after winning the match as per the ATP Tour website.
