Despite his defeat, Sinner was not despondent and talked about his experience at the tournament. He especially focused on the electric crowd that cheered him on, an experience that he never-ever imagined.

Although he may have lost in the final bout against the Serbinator, Sinner had a fantastic run in the ATP Finals. His perfect run helped him create a record that no player has managed to achieve after Roger Federer in 2003.
