Australian Open 2025 Review: Zverev no match for Sinner, Keys dethrones Sabalenka

The Hindu  

On the court, Jannik Sinner is both the proverbial irresistible force and the immovable object. As Mark Petchey, the Tennis Channel analyst, said: “You feel like you hit an offensive shot to Sinner’s backhand corner, and it comes back with interest on it.” His mastery of the extreme open-stance two-hander — almost doing the splits while maintaining perfect balance — looks exactly like that of the hyper-flexible Djokovic. I can’t resist playing three sets.” In what ESPN analyst Mary Joe Fernandez called “the match of the tournament,” Keys staved off a match point — down 6-5 in the deciding set — against Swiatek, and belted a forehand serve return that forced a backhand error from the Pole. Fernandez recalled that after Keys beat Pegula in the Adelaide final two weeks earlier, Pegula said, “If she plays half as well as she played against me, she’ll win the tournament.” Having Fratangelo in her corner under the liberalised coaching rule — which, in my view, contravenes the traditional and valid tenet of self-reliance — unquestionably tilted the balance toward Keys. “You’re always so tough to beat.” Crediting her own team for her first Grand Slam crown in her 46th Major appearance, Keys said, “They believed in me when I didn’t believe in myself.” Momentous: Paula Badosa scored the biggest win of her career when she beat Coco Gauff in the quarterfinal.
