Jannik Sinner won the 2026 Mutua Madrid Open. The fact that he won it is not as big of a headline is how he won it. He defeated Alexander Zverev in straight sets in 58 minutes. Zverev won only three games.
Sinner is in a class by himself while Carlos Alcaraz is out with a wrist injury. At this point, we do not know when Alcaraz will return or how long it will take for him to get match ready when he does.
