Jannik Sinner has put the finishing touch to a historic season in world tennis. The Italian, number one in the ATP ranking, has been chosen for the second consecutive year as the “Fans’ Favorite” at the ATP Awards. This award, which for almost two decades belonged to Roger Federer, consolidates the young man from San Candido as one of the most beloved figures on the circuit.
According to the newspaper Sport, The choice of followers is not a coincidence. Sinner has had an unforgettable 2024 with eight titles, including two Grand Slams (Australia and the United States), three Masters 1,000 (Miami, Cincinnati and Shanghai) and the Nitto ATP Finals in Turin. Additionally, he led Italy to their second consecutive Davis Cup, reaffirming their dominance in both individual and team tournaments.
In a message full of gratitude, the Italian thanked the support received. “I want to thank the fans from all over the world who have voted for me. You are the reason why I love playing tennis,” he expressed in a video published on his social networks. His words reflect the special connection he has forged with the public throughout his meteoric career.
Sinner has not only won titles, but also records. This year he became the third player in history to win his first two Grand Slams in the same season. Furthermore, by reaching number one in the ranking, he succeeded the legendary Novak Djokovic, marking the beginning of a new era in world tennis.
With his charisma on and off the track, Jannik Sinner closes 2024 as a benchmark in the sport. His recognition as the “Fans Favorite” reinforces his place not only as the best tennis player of the moment, but as a figure capable of inspiring millions around the world. @mundiario
