Jannik Sinner officially enters ATP Masters 1000 history with a streak of 26 consecutive winning sets.

Jannik Sinner continues to affirm his status as one of the world's most outstanding tennis players by officially entering ATP Masters 1000 history with a streak of 26 consecutive winning sets.

In the third round of the tournament held in Miami, Sinner secured a convincing victory of 6-1, 6-4 against Corentin Moutet. This match saw the Italian player completely dominate the game thanks to his stable serve and sharp attacking style. According to statistics, Sinner won up to 87% of points from his first serve, a figure demonstrating his absolute dominance over his opponent.

With this win, Sinner extended his streak of consecutive winning sets at Masters 1000 tournaments to 26, officially surpassing Novak Djokovic's previous record (24 sets). Earlier, the Italian player had equaled the Serbian legend's achievement after his victory in the second round, before setting the new milestone in the third round.

Sinner's impressive streak of form actually began late last year when he won the Paris Masters without losing any sets. This upward trajectory continued into 2026 with his Indian Wells championship victory, also following a 2-0 sweep scenario. Overall, Sinner currently holds a streak of 13 consecutive wins at the Masters 1000 level, an extremely remarkable achievement.

Moreover, the world's number 2 player is demonstrating incredible stability when facing left-handed opponents. His victory over Moutet extended his unbeaten streak against this group of players to 21 matches.

In the next round, Sinner will face Alex Michelsen, who just defeated Alejandro Tabilo after three sets. Sinner's goal is not only to advance deep into the Miami Open but also to aim for completing the "Sunshine Double" (winning Indian Wells and Miami Open consecutively), the last person to achieve this was Roger Federer in 2017.

In the context where his direct competitor Carlos Alcaraz was eliminated early, Sinner's opportunity to narrow the gap on the ATP rankings is very clear, especially since he has no points to defend at Miami this year.

Contrary to Sinner's soaring form, Daniil Medvedev disappointed by stopping in the third round after a loss to Francisco Cerundolo. The Argentine player created a major upset by defeating the former world number 1 with a score of 6-0, 4-6, 7-5 after over two hours of intense play.

Cerundolo started explosively by winning the first set outright, before Medvedev strongly rallied in the second set. However, composure and resilience helped the Argentine player secure the decisive victory in the third set, thereby marking a win against a top 10 opponent.

Notably, Medvedev entered Miami with high form after just ending Alcaraz's 16-match winning streak at Indian Wells. However, he could not maintain stability and had to leave the tournament early with a record of 19 wins – 5 losses since the start of the season.
