Streaking Sinner Makes Masters History in Miami
Jannik Sinner continued his clinical run through the Miami Open on Sunday night, easing past France’s Corentin Moutet, 6-1, 6-4, in a performance that was as efficient as it was authoritative. The Italian needed little time to assert control, striking cleanly from the baseline and keeping the creative Frenchman a step behind for most of the night.

That said, Moutet had his moments and played some memorable points that helped keep the fans entertained as the Italian marched to his 15th victory of 2026 against just two losses.
In the end, it was too much Sinner to handle, as the Italian dropped just ten points on serve and saved the only break point he faced to win the match in 71 minutes.
Fresh off his title at Indian Wells, Sinner remains firmly in contention to become the eighth man to complete the coveted Sunshine Double. His latest victory improves him to 22-3 lifetime in Miami, further underlining his comfort at the event.
But it was his run of consecutive sets won – a streak that started in Paris last year, before running through the California desert last weekend, that has captivated the imagination. Sinner will put it on the line in the round of 16 when he faces American Alex Michelsen next.

On hard courts, wherever he goes, Sinner has become a force—methodical, dominant, and increasingly difficult to disrupt.
