Jannik Sinner produced a masterclass in Riyadh as he swept aside Carlos Alcaraz to claim his second consecutive Six Kings Slam title. The Italian ace took just 73 minutes to dominate his Spanish opponent 6-2, 6-4 and bank a record $6 million – the biggest prize money in tennis this year.
Even though the Six Kings Slam is a show event and has no bearing on ATP standings or official head-to-head records, Sinner went into the match with revenge in his thoughts after losing to Alcaraz in last month’s US Open final. He had been able to notch only a single victory over the world No. 1 in their last eight official meetings that sole victory in the Wimbledon final earlier this year.
