Jannik Sinner Triumphs at Miami Open and Secures World No. 2 Ranking

Jannik Sinner won against Grigor Dimitrov in the final of the Miami Open, the second Master 1000 of the season yesterday. The tournament, following Indian Wells, was won by the South Tyrolean who defeated the Bulgarian in two sets. After the match, the class of 2002 expressed his happiness in the press conference for having reached the second place in the ATP ranking: "Being number 2 obviously has a great meaning for me, I am very happy," declared Jannik Sinner in the press conference after his victory in the Miami Open - But the most important aspect is the quality of the performances I have shown here, especially in the semifinals and final. I would have never thought to find myself in this position, it's a beautiful feeling. If on January first someone had told me I would have experienced this start of the season, I would have never believed it." An important victory that allowed him to win the first tournament of the circuit in his career, as well as the prize money and the points at stake (1000). These allowed the tennis player born in 2002 to make a leap forward surpassing Carlos Alcaraz. The Spaniard was eliminated in the quarterfinals by the Bulgarian who then surrendered to Sinner's careful play in the final. A rise of 350 points in the ranking for Jannik, who now has his eyes set on Djokovic still leading the board. "I'm not a guy for big celebrations," continued Sinner. "A quiet dinner with my team is enough for me. It was a special week and I'm happy about it, but now it's time to go home and start preparing for Montecarlo. There's not much time."
