Jannik Sinner has become the fourth tennis player in the Open Era to win his first 50 matches against opponents ranked outside the top 50. It is important to value the merit of this fact since the Italian managed to defeat that type of opponents even when he was starting on the circuit. The difficulty of achieving something like this is maximum, as evidenced by the fact that only Jimmy Connors, Guillermo Vilas, and John McEnroe had done it before.
