The *********** Open 2025: Jannik Sinner and Alexander Zverev share touching post-final moment

Minutes after Jannik Sinner won his third Grand Slam, he shared a touching moment with the man he defeated to win the *********** Open, who has now lost three Grand Slam finals without claiming one himself.

Alexander Zverev has spoken openly about his mental health battles and inability to believe in himself to win the ultimate prize in tennis despite being the second-best player in the world.

Tonight’s loss might reinforce that view, but Sinner was filmed consoling his opponent and embracing him warmly before the trophy presentation.

It appeared as if Sinner was telling Zverev he would one day taste the same success as the Italian maestro.

While Sinner won in straight sets, there were moments when Zverev looked like he could seriously challenge the World No. 1 and pushed Sinner to a tiebreak in the second set.

But he was unable to sustain the pressure at the crucial moments or land the crucial shots as Sinner put on a clinical display.

Sinner only dropped two sets throughout the entire tournament at Melbourne Park.

After he clinched the third set 6-3, Sinner and Zverev embraced on Sinner’s side of the court before the back-to-back champion hugged his team and then climbed into the stands to celebrate with more family and team members.

Zverev, who is extremely popular at the event, said, “You’re just too good … I am just not good enough.”

Sinner spoke kindly of Zverev during his victory speech.

“You’re an amazing player, keep believing in yourself. We all know how strong you are as a player and person. We all believe you can lift one of these very soon.”
