World No. 1 Jannik Sinner delivered a brutal statement of intent at the French Open, dispatching Czechia’s Jiri Lehecka 6-0, 6-1, 6-2 in just 94 minutes to storm into the fourth round at Stade Roland-Garros on Saturday. The top seed remained flawless in Paris, having yet to drop a set, and extended his Grand Slam winning streak to 17 matches. 

Under grey skies on Court Suzanne-Lenglen, Sinner was clinical from the start, showcasing his signature blend of baseline control, early ball-striking, and ruthless returning. 

Sheer masterclass

The Italian dropped just nine points on serve all match and punished Lehecka’s inconsistent deliveries with unanswerable returns.
