The Sinner in this year's ATP Tour calendar has secured 58 wins and five defeats. The number of wins automatically passed Alexander Zverev who had 57 wins and 18 defeats.
Sinner also achieved this victory amid controversy about the alleged use of doping that was befalling him.
The 23-year-old is currently under the supervision of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).
On Saturday, September 28, 2024, WADA said that it was seeking a ban for up to two years after the tennis player tested positive twice using a steroid cluster in March 2024.
Previously, the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) freed Sinner from mistakes in August 2024 and allowed him to continue playing.
A few weeks later, he won the US Open 2024, which is the second Grand Slam of his career.
ITIA at the time received a Sinner explanation that the drug entered his body accidentally when his physiotherapist used a spray to treat the wound.
WADA has also appealed this case to the Sports Arbitration Court (CAS). If proven then Sinner will certainly miss tennis for a long time.
