How does the Sun influence the tides that we experience on Earth?

The Sun is much too far away to any significant tides on our planet

The Sun's tides depend on what season we are in, and are very different in winter than in summer

The Sun has a much greater mass than the Moon, so its tides on Earth are much larger than the tides raised by the Moon

The Sun also raises tides on Earth, but its effect is smaller than that of the Moon
