It was only heard in silence before serving. Unmistakable drumbeat, bass was reflected in the rhythm for 162 minutes when Jannik Sinner won to win his third Grand Slam title. This one was in straight sets above the willing but elevated Alexander Zverev.
Where the sound came from, no one could say. He had it uhtz The techno and the party court in Melbourne of the park was particularly loud an hour before the start of the final. But this music was scheduled for the end, as well as all other attractions, creating a journey for a traditional tennis climax on Sunday night Australian Open.
This conflict had the pace of the dominance of the world no. 1: It serves in four to four times, the bass line from the base line. Percussion came from the outside of the Rod Laver Arena, but it was obvious inside the Sinner virtuosity chains.
The Italian did not give up one turning chance against the world no. 2. At the championship point, it seemed to amplified German suffering when the shot from the drop changed the normally the statue of Zverev on Bambi on the Blue Melbourne Park.
Sinner now has a back-to-back Australian open trophies and is one of the only eight players who won their first three Grand Slam finals, in the footsteps of Carlos Alcaraza, another of the latest generation that has now overcome similar Zverev, Zverev, Stefanos Tsitsipas and Danail Medvedev.
On Sunday night, she threatened to be revenge on the gang of the 1990s. Sinner looked vulnerable against Holger Rune in the 16th round and the highest seed he defeated here was eighth, Alex de Minaur. Zverev – born in 1997 – came to the highest form and was fresh from his shortened defeat Novak Djokovic in the semifinals. But it was Sinner – born in 2001, which calmed Germany at the end. “It was a bit difficult for me because I really went to the finals and (from) preparation today I really thought I had a very good chance because I felt good,” Zverev said.

For most of this, he resembled that he was very found, he could not find a way to combat Sinner’s power and control. His attempts to come largely by failure and barely scratched one of the two points in the net.
At 4-4 in the decisive second set tie, when the clean cable passed the Italian point, Zverev’s shoulders dropped. He turned to his team and slowly cleaned back to the base line. There were moments of frustration, flashes of rocket abuse, but they also had half of the adolescence. “I serve better than him, but that’s it,” Zverev bounced. “Doing everything better than me.” It moves better than me. Hits his forehead better than me. Hits his backhand better than me. Returns better than me. Calling better than me. ”
Through the net from the carved Zvereva was a gangly young man who had clothes of lemon meringue, which was finished with a yellow cap. Walking with unpleasant walking and leaning legs. With the condition of the skin, which makes itching on the legs and back. This first impression of Sinner is not Athleticism Novak Djokovic, Rafa Nadal’s stamina or the grace of Roger Federer. But his game is pure, the results are irrefutable. This is not a creature that is not in this world, a spider entangled in its prey with one ground with a row at once.
When the match approached his crescendo in the second set, for a moment when the bass was constantly resembling a pulse. In no case was it a classic competition, but there were moments of tension that reminded 15,000 fans at the stadium. These are the two best players in the world.
The heart raced at 5-6 in the second set, Sinner served at 30-30 and Zverev was only two points out of the set. It was closest to Malský. The 21-Šatková Rally finally won Sinner with Backhand in the net. Both players covered the entire trial on the display, which let them breathe and the crowd updated. However, the second set soon passed and the third quickly retreated, the result is essential as a sound.
Australian employee Open staff finally identified its source at the end of the match. The rocket did not come from Melbourne Park, but from the electronic music festival kilometer further. This is the result that will hear much further around. As Zverev thought about Sinner, “He is in another universe for everyone else right now.”
