The brothers are the most decorated Croatian Summer Olympians in history, and won the gold medal in the double sculls at the 2016 Summer Olympics, the coxless pair at the 2020 Summer Olympics and the coxless pair at the 2024 Summer Olympics, and the silver medal in the quadruple sculls at the 2012 Summer Olympics together with David Šain and Damir Martin. Sinković is a six-time world champion, twice in quadruple sculls, double sculls and coxless pair each, and seven-time European champion, with four titles in double sculls and three titles in coxless pair. He is also a two-time U23 world champion in quadruple sculls with his brother, Šain and Martin.

The Sinković brothers have been racing together internationally since 2008 and holds the world best time in double sculls, set at the 2014 World Rowing Championships where they were the first men's team to go under 6 minutes for their race time. Sinković is also the world record holder in the 6000 metres on the indoor rower with the time of 18:05.7 (1:30.4).
