The 23-year-old Italian defeated Taylor Fritz in straight sets to win his second Grand Slam title to add to his first in Australia in January.

"It was not easy, that's for sure, but I tried to stay focused, with which I guess I've done a great job.” His triumph on Sunday allowed him become the first man since Guillermo Vilas in 1977 to win his first two Grand Slam titles in the same season.
