Jannik Sinner defeated Alexander Zverev 6-3, 7-6(4) on Friday to reach the Miami Open final, putting him one victory away from completing the 'Sunshine Double' after winning Indian Wells earlier this month.
The world number two will face Czech Jiri Lehecka in Sunday's final. After the match, Sinner exclaimed 'Let's go!' when Zverev failed to return his serve on match point.
'It has been an incredible swing,' said the four-time Grand Slam champion, who secured his 16th consecutive Masters 1000 match victory. 'I've been trying to play as many matches as possible and I couldn't do any better. Today was a very tough encounter; he played some incredible tennis, but I was serving very well, especially in the end and in the crucial moments.'
Sinner is now one win from becoming the first man since Roger Federer in 2017 to win both Indian Wells and Miami in the same season. Meanwhile, world number one Aryna Sabalenka will face Coco Gauff in the women's final on Saturday, also aiming for the Sunshine Double.
Earlier, Lehecka dismantled Arthur Fils 6-2, 6-2 in just 75 minutes to reach his first Masters 1000 final. The 24-year-old broke the Frenchman early and never let go, as Fils committed 21 unforced errors to Lehecka's 14.
'Definitely one of my goals, but at the same time it's just a sport, there are more important things going on in the world right now. I'm just trying to do what I do best,' Lehecka said.
