Every Sunshine Double Champion, and who they defeated in each final – Tennis Now
Only a handful of people have accomplished the Sunshine Double, but Aryna Sabalenka and Yannik Sinner are both capable of chasing that feat in Miami this year. Novak Djokovic leads all players with four career sweeps and is the only man to accomplish the feat in three consecutive seasons (2014-16). Sabalenka and Sinner looked to history to add their names to one of the most exclusive tennis clubs.
Here’s a look back at the Sunshine’s 17 doubles, which include 1994, 2005 and 2016, when both men and women won the double in the same year.
