THE CHAMPION LIFTS THE TROPHY AND TAKES CENTRE STAGE

Sinner praises Medvedev for fighting for every ball and for coming through so many long matches. He adds that he hopes he wins the trophy in Melbourne one day.

Jannik thanks his team, says it’s a big moment for him and that he is still learning in these sort of tournaments.

He sends a special message to his parents for their support throughout his rise from a young kid to this moment now.

It’s an understated speech but that sums him up; an ordinary, nice guy with extraordinary tennis skills.
