Sinner, who went 73-6 last year with eight ATP trophies, picked up right where he left off in Australia and dropped just two sets en route to the title.
It means Sinner has joined an illustrious list of players who have successfully defended their Melbourne title this century alongside Andre Agassi, Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic.
It is also the 23-year-old’s 19th career title, stretching his win-streak to an impressive 21 matches.
