Jannik Sinner and Felix Auger-Aliassime are set to face off in a high-stakes final at the Rolex Paris Masters on Sunday, with both players vying for major achievements at La Défense Arena. Their current Lexus ATP Head2Head series stands at 2-2, but Sinner has emerged victorious in their last two encounters earlier this year, including a dramatic match at the US Open.
Sinner, who is aiming for his first title in Paris, has the chance to reclaim the No. 1 spot in the PIF ATP Rankings — a position he lost to rival Carlos Alcaraz following their intense final at Roland Garros. His current momentum is impressive, having not lost a match indoors since the Davis Cup Finals in 2023 and riding a remarkable 25-match winning streak under the roof. His powerful groundstrokes and tactical play have made him a formidable opponent on indoor surfaces.
On the other hand, Auger-Aliassime has had a resurgence this season, re-entering the Top 10 for the first time since 2023 after securing three ATP Tour titles. By winning the Paris final, he would also earn a coveted spot at the Nitto ATP Finals. Remarkably, he has demonstrated his resilience throughout this tournament, coming back from a set down in his initial matches. His ability to adapt and utilize a variety of shots will be crucial as he seeks to disrupt Sinner’s rhythm.
The excitement builds as these two skilled players prepare to meet, not only for the title but also to confirm their standings in the tennis world. Their match is scheduled to begin at 3 p.m. CET/9 a.m. ET, promising a thrilling showdown between two of the sport’s brightest talents as they take the court in Paris.
