Alexander Zverev will face Jannik Sinner in the final of the 2025 Vienna Open, marking their first meeting since the Australian Open final in January. The matchup pits two former champions against each other in a high-stakes ATP 500 clash at the Wiener Stadthalle on Sunday, October 26.

Zverev, who defeated Lorenzo Musetti in straight sets to reach the final, acknowledged the significance of the encounter. “È la prima volta che affronto Jannik dopo l’Australian Open,” he said. “Sento che è principalmente colpa mia. Lui è stato praticamente in tutte le finali possibili. Io no. Sarà una grande sfida. Non vedo l’ora. Giocherò contro uno dei due migliori giocatori al mondo. Vedremo davvero a che livello sono.”

Sinner’s dominant run continues

Jannik Sinner arrives in the final riding a 20-match winning streak on indoor hard courts. He dispatched Alex de Minaur 6-3, 6-4 in the semifinals, reaching his eighth final of the season. The Italian has already claimed titles at the Australian Open, Wimbledon, and Beijing this year, and is in contention for the year-end No. 1 ranking.

“Non è stato facile arrivare in finale qui,” Sinner said after his win. “Il primo set è stato molto fisico, quindi sono felice di aver vinto in due set oggi.”

A clash of styles and momentum

Zverev’s powerful baseline game and aggressive serving will be tested against Sinner’s precision and court coverage. Their last meeting in Melbourne ended with Sinner lifting the trophy in straight sets, and the German is eager to measure his progress since then.

The Vienna final offers Zverev a chance to claim his second ATP 500 title of the season and his 300th hard-court win at tour level. For Sinner, it’s another opportunity to solidify his dominance and edge closer to the top spot in the rankings.

What’s at stake

Beyond the trophy, the match carries implications for the ATP Finals and the year-end rankings. Both players are already qualified for Turin, but momentum and confidence heading into the final stretch of the season are on the line.

With the crowd in Vienna set for a blockbuster showdown, all eyes will be on Zverev and Sinner to deliver a final worthy of their growing rivalry.
