Implacable Sinner Italian world No. 2 overpowers Lehecka to win Miami Open, completing ‘Sunshine Double’

than an hour. Sinner had just pocketed the first set when the showers hit again, halting the match for 90 minutes. It wasn’t enough to unsettle Sinner, who fired 10 aces and won 33 of 36 points when he put his first serve in play. 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. Sinner trailed 0-40 in the follow ing game but fired three service win ners and a pair of aces to hold. “I tried to be focused,” Sinner said. “I tried to understand why I missed the first serves before. In the beginning, the condi tions were very differ ent… very, very heavy balls. I missed a cou ple of first serves in the net because they were quite heavy.” He said Lehecka’s aggressive return game also gave him pause. “You have to hit very precise. If not, he has it on the racquet,” Sinner said. Lehecka, playing in his first Masters 1000 final, he will reach a career-high 14th in the world rankings on today. “I came here with not good form and I was able to come back to the tennis that I want to play,” Lehecka said at the trophy ceremony. – AFP

W ORLD NO. 2 Jannik Sinner powered past Jiri Lehecka 6-4, 6-4 to win the ATP Miami Masters 1000 for a sec ond time on Sunday, adding the title to his Indian Wells crown. Sinner had to wait out rain delays before and during the match to complete his “Sunshine Double,” becoming the first man to sweep the elite hard court tournaments in California and Florida since Roger Federer in 2017 and the first to do so without dropping a set. In fact, Sinner – who won Miami in 2024 but missed last year as he served a three-month dop ing ban – has now won three straight Masters 1000 events, starting with a victory in Paris last year.

“It’s a very, very special moment,” Sinner said. “Coming here, performing again in a very good way after Indian Wells means a lot to me. It’s something I never would’ve thought (I’d win) because it’s difficult to achieve.” Sinner’s victory, coupled with Aryna Sabalenka’s triumph over Coco Gauff on Saturday, mark the first time the Indian Wells Miami sweep was achieved on both the men’s and women’s sides since Novak Djokovic and Victoria Azarenka both did it in 2016. It also saw the Italian gain a bit on Spain’s Carlos Alcaraz – who was upset in the third round – in the race for world No. 1 as the clay court sea son beckons. Early showers saw the match delayed for more

GARY WOODLAND, who weeks ago spoke about stress issues in the wake of 2023 brain surgery, won for the first time since the 2019 US Open by capturing the PGA Houston Open yesterday. The 41-year-old American fired a 3-under 67 in yesterday’s final round at Memorial Park to finish 72 holes on a tournament record 21 under 259 and defeat Dane Nicolai Hojgaard by five strokes. A tearful Woodland had disclosed earlier this month that he still fights post-traumatic stress disorder following 2023 surgery to remove a brain tumor. Just weeks later, Woodland took his first victory in seven years after admitting he has wanted to walk off golf courses numerous times during his struggle to find lost form. “Anybody that’s struggling with something, I hope they see me and don’t give up, just keep fighting,”Woodland said as he wiped away tears on the 18th green moments after completing the long-sought victory.

“Kim has been playing amazing golf,” said Korda, who had two eagles and four birdies in her 5-under 67 for 262. “It has been inspiring to see,” said Korda after being alongside the South Korean for a second straight weekend. “Playing with her, I definitely elevate my game.” Korda made sure of solo second place with a bravura finish that featured an eagle at the 17th and a birdie at the last. Japan’s Minami Katsu had charged up the leaderboard with seven birdies in a 7-under 65, her 23-under total briefly pulling her level with Korda before she settled for third. – AFP Spectators chanted his name while Woodland waited to make his final shots on the 18th green, then erupted in cheers as he tapped in for the triumph then looked up and exhaled, then tearfully embraced his wife, Gabby. “There’s no chance I could do this without Gabby for sure,” Woodland said. “This has been hard on me, and a lot harder on her and I love her to death. “We play an individual sport out here but I wasn’t alone today. I’ve got a lot of people behind me, my team, my family and this golf world.” With the victory, Woodland booked himself a spot in the Masters next month at Augusta National, where his best finish was a share of 14th in 2023. “My game is better than it has ever been,“ Woodland said. I’ve got to battle some stuff with that but my game is (fine).” Defending champion Min Woo Lee of Australia shared third on 265 with American Johnny Keefer. – AFP

Kim drives home with Ford Championship DEFENDING champion Kim Hyo-joo won the LPGA Ford Championship yesterday, seizing her second title in as many weeks as she again out dueled American Nelly Korda. and 12 that pushed her lead back to four. After a bogey at 16, Kim nabbed her last birdie of the day at the par-five 17th.

Kim, who had set the LPGA 54-hole scoring record at 25-under, fired a 3-under 69 for a 28 under total and a two-shot win over Korda at Whirlwind Golf Club in Phoenix, Arizona. “It feels fantastic,” said Kim, the world No. 4 who last week withstood a late surge by Korda to win the Founders Cup by one stroke. She had more breathing room yesterday after firing impressive 61s in the first and third rounds, starting the day with a four-shot lead and picking up birdies in three of her first seven holes. A double bogey at the eighth cut her lead to one stroke, but she responded with birdies at 10
