Sinner and Zverev Set for Epic Vienna Open Final Showdown
It’s going to be an electrifying Sunday in Vienna as Jannik Sinner and Alexander Zverev prepare to face off in the Vienna Open final — a clash that feels more like a rematch written in destiny. The two last met on one of tennis’s grandest stages, the Australian Open final earlier this year, where Sinner triumphed in straight sets. Now, the world number two will look to repeat that dominance, while Zverev is determined to flip the script and reclaim some long-lost momentum.
Zverev booked his place in the final after an impressive 6-4, 7-5 victory over Italy’s Lorenzo Musetti. The German star looked sharp and confident, handling the key points with precision and sealing the win without hesitation when it mattered most. This victory also marked his 300th career win on hard courts — a milestone that underscores his consistency and endurance on the tour. Reflecting on the upcoming challenge, Zverev said he’s eager to test himself against one of the world’s very best, adding, “I’m looking forward to playing one of the top two players in the world to see where my level really is.”

Meanwhile, Sinner continued his unstoppable form with a solid 6-3, 6-4 win over Australia’s Alex de Minaur earlier in the day. The Italian was tested at times, getting broken once in each set, but his mental strength and composed shot-making ensured he always had the upper hand. With this victory, Sinner extended his indoor hard-court winning streak to an incredible 20 matches, showing once again why he’s one of the hottest players in tennis right now.
This will be Sinner’s eighth ATP final of the season, making him the first man since Novak Djokovic in 2015–16 to reach eight finals in consecutive seasons. Already a champion at the Australian Open, Wimbledon, and the China Open this year, Sinner is now eyeing his fourth title of the season — and a successful defense of his Vienna crown from 2023.
The rivalry between these two top seeds has been an intriguing one. While Zverev leads their head-to-head 4–3 overall, he hasn’t beaten Sinner since the 2023 US Open. Since that loss, the Italian’s game has evolved significantly — marked by precision, power, and a growing calm under pressure.
As both players take the court on Sunday, the stage is perfectly set for a thrilling showdown. Sinner will aim to continue his remarkable season, while Zverev will be fighting not just for the trophy, but to prove that he can once again challenge the world’s elite. One thing is certain — Vienna is about to witness a final worthy of the spotlight.
