Jannik Sinner<\/a>, true to his relentless mindset, is already looking ahead rather than lingering on the magnitude of his latest achievement.<\/p>\n By clinching titles at both Indian Wells and Miami, the World No. 2 became the first man since Roger Federer<\/a> in 2017 to complete the coveted \u2018Sunshine Double\u2019. Still, after his final win over Jiri Lehecka<\/a> in South Florida on Sunday, Sinner\u2019s attention quickly shifted to what comes next: the spring clay swing.<\/p>\n \u201cFor me, now the most important thing is to recover and enjoy this moment,\u201d said Sinner, who is scheduled to compete at the Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters<\/a>, which begins Sunday. \u201cI don’t have a lot of time to adjust, playing on clay, if I want to play Monaco. I have always been someone who thinks in a very present moment. I don’t look in front, but I also don’t look backwards.<\/p>\n \u201cWhatever comes, comes. I’m very happy about these couple of tournaments, and now a new chapter starts with the clay again. Let’s see how it goes.\u201d<\/p>\n With his dominant run through March \u2014 where he did not drop a set en route to titles in Indian Wells and Miami \u2014 Sinner has also tightened the battle with Carlos Alcaraz<\/a> for the World No. 1 spot. He now trails his Spanish rival by just 1,190 points in the PIF ATP Rankings<\/a>.<\/p>\n While the rankings conversation continues to build, Sinner was quick to downplay its significance, keeping the emphasis on his own level.<\/p>\n \u201cI think it’s all individual, our sport, that it’s very tough,\u201d Sinner said. \u201cThe big picture for me is depending on how I play, and that should be the ranking, no? Carlos, he has been so consistent for so, so long. Now we go on clay, where we all know how strong he is there.\u201d<\/p>\n You May Also Like: Sinner closes on Alcaraz’s Big Titles count with Miami triumph<\/a><\/p>\n Reflecting on his recent success, Sinner pointed to one key factor behind his surge: his serve. Across six matches in Miami, he dropped serve just once and extended his record to 34 consecutive sets won at Masters 1000 level.<\/p>\n \u201cIt has to be the serve,\u201d Sinner responded when asked what he was most pleased about during his run through March. \u201cEspecially this week, [I have been] serving very well. When you tend to get a little bit tired physically, but you have some free points, the serve helps you a lot.<\/p>\n \u201cThis month I feel like here I was serving better than Indian Wells, but we worked a lot to be in this position. Now, on clay, the serve, you need to use it in a very different way. You cannot go only flat. Let’s see how that works. But at the moment, I also want to enjoy this moment.\u201d<\/p>\n Sinner departs Miami with a 19-2 record in 2026, according to the Infosys ATP Win\/Loss Index. After his semi-final defeat to Novak Djokovic<\/a> at the Australian Open<\/a> and quarter-final loss to Jakub Mensik<\/a> in Doha, the 24-year-old has responded emphatically, increasing the pressure on Alcaraz at the top of the game.<\/p>\n Next up is Monte-Carlo, where Sinner has reached back-to-back semi-finals in 2023 and 2024. The first clay-court Masters 1000 event of the season begins Sunday in Monaco.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Match Reaction Sinner shifts focus after Miami title: \u2018A new chapter starts\u2019 World No. 2 previews clay swing…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":554437,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[72],"tags":[99,428],"class_list":{"0":"post-554436","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tennis","8":"tag-sports","9":"tag-tennis"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/554436","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=554436"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/554436\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/554437"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=554436"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=554436"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=554436"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
