Sinner defeats Djokovic: Triumph as the youngest Shanghai champion!

Shanghai, China - Jannik Sinner shaked the tennis world with a resounding victory over Novak Djokovic in the final of the Shanghai tournament! The 23-year-old Italian superstar prevailed 7: 6 (7: 4), 6: 3 against the Serbian record-Grand Slam winner and thus already celebrated his third title this year in a Masters 1000 tournament. Sinner makes history by being crowned the latest champion of the Shanghai tournament and ends the year as number 1 of the tennis world!

But the joy could be overshadowed: Despite an acquittal after two positive doping tests, Sinner continues to threaten a lock. The Wada has appealed to the International Sports Court CAS in Lausanne. For Djokovic, however, the final was another blow: the 37-year-old missed his 100th title and again fought with the aftermath of his knee operation. However, he showed no signs of restrictions during the game, but Sinner proved to be the more determined player who captivated the amount of spectators, including tennis legends such as Roger Federer.
