NEW YORK—Jannik Sinner beat Taylor Fritz 6–3, 6–4, 7–5 with a relentless baseline game to win the U.S. Open men’s championship on Sunday, less than three weeks after being exonerated in a doping case.
The No. 1-ranked Sinner, a 23-year-old from Italy, won the second Grand Slam trophy of his nascent career—the other was at the Australian Open in January—and prevented No. 12 Fritz from ending a major title drought for American men that has lasted 21 years.
