World No.1 Jannik Sinner has a chance to write tennis history as he prepares to face Taylor Fritz in the US Open final on Sunday. The Italian ace already bagged his first major win at the Australian Open this year and can double up on Grand Slam triumphs at Flushing Meadows.
However, he'll have to take out the home hero - the United States' first major finalist in 15 years - to do so. In just a few short years, Sinner has ascended from being a promising Next Gen prospect to a formidable contender for the biggest titles in tennis. And this rapid rise has resulted in some hefty paydays that have propelled him into the limelight.
Sinner's life is equally exciting off the court, with a fellow tennis star for a girlfriend and success in other sporting fields. The Daily Express has explored the New York favourite's wealth, personal life and potential gains in Manhattan. Massive net worth Sinner's meteoric rise in men's tennis has been swift, and his bank balance reflects it.
His total ATP winnings to date are approximately £18million ($24m) ahead of Sunday's showdown, although his actual net worth is believed to be closer to £12m ($16m). Away from the tennis court, Sinner has lucrative endorsement deals with some of the biggest brands in the industry, including Nike, Head and Rolex. It should come as no shock he's also a favourite with Italian companies like Gucci, Lavazza and Alfa Romeo.
It was two years ago now that Sinner struck gold with a 10-year deal under Nike's banner. Si.
