We made it somehow, so I&#8217;m very happy.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sinner&#8217;s victory, coupled with Aryna Sabalenka&#8217;s triumph over Coco Gauff on Saturday, mark the first time the Indian Wells-Miami sweep was achieved on both the men&#8217;s and women&#8217;s sides since Novak Djokovic and Victoria Azarenka both did it in 2016.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It also saw the Italian gain a bit on Spain&#8217;s Carlos Alcaraz in the race for world number one as the clay court season beckons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Early showers saw the match delayed for more than an hour. Sinner had just pocketed the first set when the showers hit again, halting the match for 90 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It wasn&#8217;t enough to unsettle Sinner, who fired 10 aces and won 33 of 36 points when he put his first serve in play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His return game was also spot on as he handed 22nd-ranked Czech Lehecka his first service break of the tournament for a 2-1 lead in the opening frame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sinner trailed 0-40 in the following game but fired three service winners and a pair of aces to hold and made the advantage stand up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Italian gave himself a first set point in the ninth game with a blistering cross-court forehand service return winner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lehecka saved that one with a service winner and saved another set point with a volley, going on to seal the hold on his sixth game point before Sinner pocketed the set with a love game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lehecka fought off five set points before Sinner pounced for the lone break of the second set and a 5-4 lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sinner didn&#8217;t face a break point in the second set and gave himself a match point with a forehand volley winner, thought he had it on a serve that was called a let, and polished it off with another winner at the net.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Lehecka, playing in his first Masters 1000 final, couldn&#8217;t follow compatriot Jakub Mensik into the Miami winner&#8217;s circle, he will reach a career-high 14th in the world rankings on Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I came here with not good form and I was able to come back to the tennis that I want to play,&#8221; Lehecka said at the trophy ceremony. <a href=\"https:\/\/japantoday.com\/category\/sports\/world-number-two-sinner-overpowers-lehecka-to-win-miami-open\">(JapanToday)<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>World number two Jannik Sinner powered past Jiri Lehecka 6-4, 6-4 to win the ATP Miami Masters 1000 for a second time on Sunday, adding the title to his Indian Wells crown.
