Jannik Sinner eyes Sunshine Double after Indian Wells win while Laila Hasanovic celebrates skincare brand launch

If he wins the Miami title as well, Sinner would complete the famous “Sunshine Double.” This rare achievement happens when a player wins both Indian Wells and Miami in the same season.Only a few players have managed to do it. The most recent was Novak Djokovic, who completed the double in 2016. Jannik Sinner now has the chance to become the eighth man in tennis history to achieve the feat.The Italian has already shown strong form in Miami before. He reached the final in 2021, where he lost to Hubert Hurkacz.

He made another final run in 2023, but again finished runner-up after losing to Daniil Medvedev. His breakthrough finally came in 2024, when he defeated Grigor Dimitrov in the final to lift the Miami trophy for the first time.Because of that past success, Sinner will arrive at the tournament with strong confidence. The draw for this year’s event is expected to reveal his possible opponents soon. For now, the Italian is enjoying a moment where both his tennis career and his personal life brought good news on the very same day.
