Jannik Sinner has become the youngest man to complete the set of hard-court trophies with victory over Daniil Medvedev in the Indian Wells final on Sunday (15 March).
World number two Sinner saw off the resurgent Russian 7-6 (8-6) 7-6 (7-4) in a match lasting just under two hours in baking conditions in California.
Sinner has won both hard court Grand Slams, triumphing at the Australian Open in 2024 and 2025 and at the US Open in 2024.
The 24-year-old has also lifted all six Masters 1,000 titles, external on hard courts - adding the Indian Wells title to victories in Miami, Toronto, Cincinnati, Shanghai and Paris - and the season-ending ATP Finals.
Only Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer have achieved the same feat.
"I knew that this was a tournament I haven't won, so I wanted to prepare in the best possible way, as professionally as possible," said Sinner
"Having this achievement now means a lot to me. Now I have couple of days to relax - there is not so much time in between here and Miami.
"It's again an important tournament in Miami, but we try to play the best tennis possible there too."
