Sinner Overpowers De Minaur to Advance to Australian Open Semifinals | Tennis News


Defending Australian Open champion Jannik Sinner crushed local favorite Alex De Minaur in a dominant straight-sets victory that lasted only 108 minutes. Sinner, the world number one from Italy, showed no signs of the illness that had affected him in his previous match as he breezed past the eighth seed 6-3, 6-2, 6-1. This win sets up a semifinal clash against American Ben Shelton, who secured his spot in the last four by defeating Lorenzo Sonego.

Sinner, who has won all nine of his previous matches against De Minaur, displayed his superior ball-striking and agility throughout the match. Despite battling illness in his last match, he appeared in top form on the court and left De Minaur struggling to keep up. The Australian was unable to create opportunities against the relentless Sinner, who broke him twice in the final set to clinch the victory convincingly.

With this win, Sinner is on track to defend his Grand Slam title for the first time after his triumph at the Australian Open last year. He is also aiming to become the first Italian man to win three Grand Slam titles, having previously claimed the US Open. The upcoming semifinal against Shelton promises to be an exciting matchup as Sinner continues his quest for further success on the international tennis stage.
