Jannik Sinner became the first Italian man to win the Italian Open in 50 years by beating Casper Ruud 6-4 6-4 in the #RomeMasters final.

The World No 1 became Italy's first male winner of the tournament since Adriano Panatta in 1976.

Sinner's triumph on the red clay of the Foro Italico also made him only the second man after Novak Djokovic to win all nine Masters 1000 events - the biggest tournaments outside the Grand Slams - and complete a 'Golden Masters'.

"Incredible," Sinner said post-match "It's been a long time since an Italian won - 50 years. I'm happy one of us was able to take advantage of this great period for Italian tennis."
