Jannik Sinner arrives in Paris riding a wave of history. The world No. 1 has swept through the Masters circuit with unmatched dominance, matching Pete Sampras’s 29‑match win streak that now sets the stage for his biggest challenge yet: Roland Garros and the pursuit of a career Grand Slam. Yankee Scores reports.
Masters Sweep Sets the Tone
From California to Miami, Monte Carlo to Madrid, and finally Rome, Sinner has been untouchable for three months. His victory in Rome made him the first Italian man in 50 years to win the Italian Open, and he matched Pete Sampras’ 29‑match streak from 1994. Only Novak Djokovic’s 43‑match run stands taller in the modern era.
Eyes on Roland Garros
“We don’t have much time to realize what we’re accomplishing. My main goal is and remains Paris,” he said after his Rome triumph. The French Open is the lone missing piece in his Grand Slam collection, and with Carlos Alcaraz sidelined by injury, the path looks clearer than ever.

Beyond the Slam
Sinner has already joined Djokovic as the only men to win all nine Masters 1000 events over a career. While speculation swirls about whether he could capture all nine in a single season, Sinner remains grounded. “The most important thing for me is my body. Everyone plays tennis well,” he explained, emphasizing recovery and consistency.
Sinner might consider attempting to win all nine Masters event in a single year, with Canada, Cincinnati, Shanghai and Paris remaining, something even Djokovic never accomplished.
