Jannik Sinner continued his dominance on indoor hard courts with a commanding 6-4, 6-2 victory over Zizou Bergs at the ATP Paris Masters, extending his winning streak to 22 matches. The Italian star, fresh off his Vienna Open triumph, showcased his trademark blend of explosive power and tactical precision to advance to the third round.
Sinner's Path to Glory
The World No. 2 now stands one tournament win away from claiming the ATP's top ranking after Carlos Alcaraz's shock loss to Cameron Norrie. A Paris Masters title would see Sinner reclaim the No. 1 position just days before the ATP Finals in Turin – a feat that would cap his remarkable season featuring two Grand Slam titles and eight tour-level finals.
Altmaier's Shocking Victory
In a stunning upset, Germany's Daniel Altmaier eliminated third-seeded Casper Ruud 6-3, 6-4. The world No. 55 delivered a career-defining performance, breaking the Norwegian's serve four times while saving all seven break points he faced. Altmaier's victory marks his first Top 10 win since 2022 and reshapes the tournament's lower bracket.
As Sinner prepares to face Argentina's Francisco Cerundolo, all eyes remain on the Italian phenom's historic bid for tennis supremacy. The Paris Masters continues through November 5, with the ATP Finals qualification race reaching its climax.
