Vice President of the Russian Tennis Federation Alexey Selivanenko told that the Italian Jannik sinner deservedly defeated Serbian Novak Djokovic in the final of the Masters in Shanghai.
The Italian, who received the seed number, defeated the Serb in the final Djokovic with a score of 7:6 (7:4), 6:3.
– Yannick is truly one of the best in the world today. Novak played very well, but Sinner is younger, sharper and stronger. The final score reflects the progress of the match, the first set was equal, Sinner was only able to take the advantage in the tie-break. In the second set, I broke early and then held my serve. Once again, Djokovic played very well, but Yannick was stronger in all elements.
— Djokovic himself said after the match that Sinner’s play reminded him of himself. Do you agree?
– Yannick has absorbed the best elements from different masters, in some ways he resembles Djokovic, in others he is not. Each subsequent generation reaches a new level of pace and speed, we see it in Sinner and Alcaraz. This is the main difference: they can do the same thing in terms of skill, but at high speeds,” Selivanenko told .
