Jannik Sinner dominated the ATP Tour in 2024, as he became world number one for the first time in his career.
Sinner established himself as the premier player in men’s tennis this year, as he won his first two Grand Slam titles and reached world number one.
Sinner won the Australian Open earlier this year, coming back from two sets to love down to beat Daniil Medvedev in the final.
The Italian then went on to add three Masters 1000 titles to his collection, with Sinner’s win over Novak Djokovic in Shanghai, a clear highlight.
He doubled his major tally at the end of the year as Sinner beat Taylor Fritz to win the US Open title, his first in New York.

Ahead of the 2025 season, Djokovic spoke to Sportweek about how he has followed Sinner’s career, and that his success this year didn’t surprise him.
“Thanks to my former coach Riccardo Piatti who also followed Jannik when he was a boy, I remember [Jannik] Sinner from when he was 14 or 15 years old,” he said.
