As Jannik Sinner lifted the Miami Open trophy to cap off a dominant run in South Florida, the celebration extended beyond the court in a more understated way. While the Italian sealed one of the biggest milestones of his career, his girlfriend Laila Hasanovic marked the moment from afar with a simple gesture on social media.
A Closer Look at Jannik Sinner’s Dominant March to the Miami Open Title
Sinner’s Miami campaign itself provided plenty of reasons to celebrate. Arriving at the tournament fresh off his Indian Wells title, the World No. 2 carried his momentum seamlessly into the second leg of the Sunshine Double.
He did not drop a set en route to the final, opening with a 6-3, 6-3 win over Damir Džumhur and following it up with a 6-1, 6-4 victory against 30th seed Corentin Moutet.
His sternest test came against Alex Michelsen, where Sinner overturned a 2-5 deficit in the second set to secure a 7-5, 7-6(4) win. From there, he overwhelmed 19th seed Frances Tiafoe 6-2, 6-2 and edged past third seed Alexander Zverev 6-3, 7-6(4) to reach the final.
Across the net in the championship match stood Jiří Lehečka, who was enjoying a breakthrough Masters 1000 run. The Czech defeated players such as Taylor Fritz and Arthur Fils on his way to his first final at this level. However, Sinner remained composed on the big stage, taking the opening set 6-4 in 46 minutes.

An 80-minute rain delay early in the second set paused play with Sinner leading, but the Italian quickly reestablished control upon resumption and closed out another 6-4 set to clinch the title.
The victory carried historic weight, as he became the first man since Roger Federer in 2017 to complete the Sunshine Double. He also extended his ATP Masters 1000 streak to 34 consecutive sets won.
How Did Laila Hasanovic Subtly Celebrate Sinner’s Miami Open Victory?
Shortly after the win, the official ATP Tour Instagram account posted a photo of Sinner posing with the Miami Open trophy during the award ceremony.
Hasanovic, who is currently in Europe, acknowledged the achievement by liking the post, offering a subtle show of support.
The couple, who confirmed their relationship in October 2025 during Sinner’s Vienna Open victory speech, have maintained a notably private profile.
Hasanovic, a 25-year-old Danish model of Bosnian descent and a former Miss Universe Denmark finalist who has worked with brands like Armani and Prada Beauty, is often seen in Sinner’s player box but rarely shares their moments publicly.
