Sinner crushed de Minaur and secured Italy's victory in the Davis Cup

Today, the final of the 2023 Davis Cup took place, featuring the national teams of Italy and Australia. The match was held in Malaga, Spain, on indoor hard courts. The Australians defeated Finland in the semifinals, while the Italians proved stronger than Serbia.

The fate of the final match was decided in two singles matches. First, Matteo Arnaldi won a tense three-set match against Alexei Popyrin, with a score of 7-5, 2-6, 6-4. Then, the leaders of their teams, Jannik Sinner and Alex de Minaur, took the court. While the first set hinted at some competition (6-3), in the second, the Italian left no chance for his opponent, winning 6-0.

It's worth noting that this is the second time in their history that the Italians have become Davis Cup champions. Their first success was in 1976. Since then, they lost in four finals.
