Sinner saved 9 of 13 break points and converted 3 of 10 to win the rain-affected contest in two hours and 33 minutes. The match was halted for 70 minutes with Karatsev up 2-1 in teh third set.
The 19-year-old Italian has been in sensational form this year and he improved to 21-9 in 2021 following the win against Karatsev.
Ranked No. 17 in the world, Sinner began the year by claiming his second ATP title, when he defeated compatriot Stefano Travaglia in the final of the Great Ocean Road Open. (He won his first title in Sofia last year).
The title in Melbourne was followed by a run to a maiden ATP 1000 final in Miami, where he finished runner-up Poland’s Hubert Hurkacz.
Sinner also made it to the final four in Barcelona, defeating Andrey Rublev in the quarterfinals but failed to make the final after falling to Stefanos Tsitsipas.
The Italian also featured in the quarterfinals in Dubai and Marseille and lost to Rafael Nadal in the second round in Rome last week.
