Immense! Jannik Sinner and the Simone Bolelli/Andrea Vavassori couple win the Italian Internationals and write pages of history that we will not forget

Sunday 17 May 2026, a date that Italian tennis will not forget: both Jannik Sinner and the Simone Bolelli/Andrea Vavassori couple will be on the roof of the Internazionali d’Italia. Two victories that write pages of history, full of records and long waits for our country. Immense!

The victory of the men’s doubles

At 2.00 pm they enter the field Simone Bolelli And Andrea Vavassori“fresh” from incredible victories, including the one in the quarterfinals against the No. 1 couple in the world Harri Heliövaara/Henry Patten. Today they face Marcel Granollers-Pujol /Horacio Zeballos couple n.2.

The match is far from easy and will be very close, with two sets won both by the pair tie breakthus arriving at super tie break (which in doubles “replaces” the classic third set which is instead played in 2 out of 3 singles matches).

But here our blues triumph with a score of 10:3, a more than historic victory, given that never in history had an all-blue pair ever won the Italian Internationals.

Yet another record from Jannik Sinner

At 5pm he enters the field Jannik Sinner about which there are no more words now: after a physically painful semi-final and also suspended due to the rain, the number 1 in the world also takes home the Italian Internationals.

With this victory Sinner in one fell swoop he becomes the youngest tennis player in history to win all 6 Master 1000s, the tennis player with the longest winning streak in the Masters 1000, but above all the one who brought this title back to our country after exactly 50 years, from the unforgettable victory of Adriano Panatta in 1976 (which today was next to Sergio Mattarella to crown the new king of Rome).

All the more!
