There’s only one player who is consistently beating Jannik Sinner. Carlos Alcaraz defeated the top-ranked Sinner again, 7-6 (5), 6-1, to win his first Italian Open on Sunday and add another big clay-court title to his resume.

Carlos Alcaraz showed his class after beating Jannik Sinner to win the Italian Open on Sunday. It was their biggest meeting yet as they faced off in a Masters 1000 final for the first time. Alcaraz came out on top, saving set points in a close opener before racing through the second to win 7-6 (5) 6-1.

After an absorbing first set, Sinner's understandable lack of match toughness saw Alcaraz dance to victory in Rome.
