Jannik Sinner (Source- ATP)
Jannik Sinner surprises Novak Djokovic with a phenomenal forehand winner out of nowhere. The 24-time Grand Slam winner had no answer to this amazing shot by the World number 1 who completely dominated him in the match as he won his 7th title this season.
The Shanghai Masters finals ended up being a one-sided affair and even though we saw brilliance from Novak Djokovic in the first set. It was Sinner who was the better player on the day and eventually went on to win the Shanghai Masters, by having a dominant run this season. This is without a doubt another brilliant performance from the Italian who will be finishing as the World number 1 this year with 60 wins and only 6 losses.
Sinner showing his class against the legend
Sinner has been the best this season and there is no doubt that this entire match and title belonged to him, but it was the forehand winner in the 4th game of the second set that stole the show for us. It looked like the ball was too wide for the 2-time Grand Slam winner but from out of nowhere he turned it into a point and to do that against one of the biggest legends in the game is something to celebrate. It seemed like this was the shot that showed us who was the real champion on the day.

One of the cleanest ball strikers youโre ever gonna see.

This was a clean strike that showed the class of the Italian where he went from defense to attack instantly which even one of the greatest tennis minds could not solve at all. Sinner is the most dominant player in tennis and we all will be looking forward to what he will have in store for the upcoming season.
