One step was missing for the dream final to take place in the ATP Masters 1000 Rome 2025, and although there was some uncertainty, logic eventually prevailed. Jannik Sinner once again showed that he is the best player in the world and a rising legend, this time not as brilliantly as against Ruud, but with tremendous competitive character. He defeated Tommy Paul 1-6 6-0 6-3 and will face Carlos Alcaraz in the grand final.
A magical night with glorious repercussions. Jannik Sinner was just one match away from reaching the final of the ATP Masters 1000 Rome 2025, thus confirming the impressive level with which he has returned to competition and dispelling any doubts about his immediate form. He defeated Tommy Paul, overcoming the last hurdle before facing Carlos Alcaraz in one of those matches that can mark an era.
The events in the first set were shocking. If someone had told us that in just half an hour, Paul would dominate the local tennis player and silence the Campo Centrale, we wouldn't have believed it. But reality surpasses fiction. Sinner couldn't find his rhythm, struggled with lateral movements, and didn't assert his authority on serve. The amazement was widespread, considering where the Italian had come from.

Everything changed radically in a second set where Jannik delivered his best performance.

In the third set, the trend was clearly overwhelmingly in favor of the Italian. He managed to maintain a spectacular level of tennis, imparting a ball speed above average, overwhelming Paul, who tried to change heights and speeds, take his rival out of his comfort zone, but ran into an impregnable wall that repelled his proposals and fired shots right and left. He closed the match brilliantly and basked in the adoration of the crowd to celebrate his advance to the final of the ATP Masters 1000 Rome. The duel is set. Jannik Sinner will battle Carlos Alcaraz for glory.
