Jannik Sinner’s girlfriend Anna Kalinskaya’s brother Nikolay reacts to Italian’s historic ATP Finals 2024 triumph

On Sunday, November 17, Jannik Sinner faced Taylor Fritz in the final of the 2024 ATP Finals, held in Turin, Italy. The Italian entered the match on a flawless run, having not dropped a set all tournament. Fritz, on the other hand, had only one loss at the event, which came against Sinner in the Round Robin stage.

Sinner showcased his dominance once again, breaking Fritz at key moments—3-3 in the first set and 2-2 in the second—to secure a straight-sets victory, 6-4, 6-4. With the win, he became the first Italian to capture the ATP Finals trophy and claimed his eighth title of the season.

After the match, the World No. 1 shared his joy on Instagram, posting a celebratory image with the trophy and captioning it:

“Grazie Torino!!!! 🏆💪🏻💪🏻💚🤍❤️”

His girlfriend‘s brother Nikolay commented a ‘clap emoji’ on the post, applauding the Italian’s achievement.

Sinner became the first player since Ivan Lendl in 1986 to win the tournament without dropping a set, showcasing his consistency throughout the event. He also etched his name in the record books as the first player born in the 2000s to claim the prestigious season-ending championship.

This achievement capped an extraordinary season for Sinner, during which he led the Tour with a staggering 70 match wins. He concluded the year with an impressive 70-6 record, showcasing consistency by winning at least one set in every match he played this year.
