Sinner defeated Alcaraz in the final of Six Kings Slam

Seven weeks after losing to Alcaraz in the US Open final, Sinner took revenge with an overwhelming victory in the Six Kings Slam final. The Italian tennis player took advantage of three of the 10 break points to win $6 million - the largest prize money for a tennis tournament this year.

The early match belonged to Sinner when he won three consecutive points at the beginning of the match, broke the opponent's serve in the first game and won the first set in less than 30 minutes. Alcaraz improved his form in the second set by holding the first two service games, but he still had to save four break points in the fifth game. However, Alcaraz could not maintain the match in the next service game. The Spanish tennis player lost the game and had to watch Sinner advance straight to the championship without having to save any break points in the final.

Six Kings Slam witnessed Sinner's destructive form when he defeated Stefanos Tsitsipas in the quarterfinals, Novak Djokovic in the semi-finals and Alcaraz in the final. Speaking after the match, Alcaraz joked: "Sometimes he plays like he's playing table tennis. Standing on the other side of the net is not fun at all ".

Sinner, who won six consecutive matches at the Six Kings Slam in the past two years, said: "I wish I could play this well everywhere. It's always a great thing to share the court with Carlos. He has won tournament after tournament throughout the year. Thanks for saving one. cup back to me ".

Alcaraz also shared his thoughts on what he learned from Sinner's performance at the Six Kings Slam. "When he plays such great tennis, it makes me more motivated to go back to the practice court, give 100% and try to get better, " said the Spaniard. "It's mixed emotions. Sometimes it's annoying, but at the same time it motivates me."

Sinner also sympathizes: "That's why you need Carlos and many other players, to keep improving, to keep looking up to the people you consider role models. For me, it's Carlos, especially this season, we've met so many times. I lost to him a lot. It also makes you want to become a better tennis player ".

The six players participating in the tournament, including Alexander Zverev, Novak Djokovic, Taylor Fritz, Stefanos Tsitsipas, Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, are all guaranteed to receive 1.5 million USD just for participating, while the champion receives 6 million USD. This prize money exceeds the total prize money of all four Grand Slam tournaments. The above figure also does not include separate participation fees for each person. Champion Sinner was also awarded a gold-plated racket after the final match.

Previously, in the third place match, Djokovic withdrew immediately after losing 6-7 in the first set, due to physical problems.

Fritz did not receive a bonus for the victory, but ended a streak of 11 losing matches against Nole.
