Carlos Alcaraz produced a stunning display as he swept aside Jannik Sinner 7-6 (5) 6-1 to silence the home crowd and win the Italian Open.
Sinner was returning to action this week for the first time since the Australian Open following a three-month doping ban and had looked in solid form, dropping just one set on the way to the final.
