Sinner breaks record previously set by Federer, Djokovic & Nadal

Jannik Sinner made history on Friday at the Mutua Madrid Open, where he completed the set of reaching the final at all nine ATP Masters 1000 events.

The No. 1 player in the PIF ATP Rankings defeated Arthur Fils 6-2, 6-4 to become just the fourth — and youngest — man to achieve that feat. Sinner, 24, joined Novak Djokovic (25y), Rafael Nadal (27y) and Roger Federer (30y). Andy Murray has reached the final at eight, with the exception being Monte-Carlo.

Sinner is also aiming to become the first player in history to win five consecutive Masters 1000 titles. With trophies in Paris last year, and Indian Wells, Miami and Monte-Carlo in 2026, the Italian is riding a 27-match winning streak at this level.

The World No. 1 is also just the third man to reach the final of the first four Masters 1000 events of the season, joining Roger Federer in 2006 and Rafael Nadal in 2011. Sinner is an eight-time Masters 1000 champion, having won his first title at this level in Toronto in 2023.

If he wins the title in Madrid, and then triumphs in Rome, Sinner would complete the Career Golden Masters. Record 40-time Masters 1000 champion Djokovic is the only player to have achieved the feat.

With his victory over Fils, Sinner became the first player born in the 2000s to record 350 tour-level wins. He meets two-time Madrid champion Alexander Zverev in Sunday’s final.
