Australian Open: Sinner Gets Winning Start, Beats Dutchman Van De Zandschulp

By IANS News January 14, 2024 • 10:58 AM View: 833

Rod Laver Arena: Jannik Sinner made a winning start to his 2024 season on Sunday’s historic opening day of play at the Australian Open with a straight-sets victory against Dutch player Botic van de Zandschulp at Rod Laver Arena on Sunday.

In his first outing since guiding Italy to Davis Cup glory in November, Sinner suffered a bizarre slump at the beginning of the third before he closed out a 6-4, 7-5, 6-3 victory.

Sinner, who reached the fourth round at Melbourne Park last year and the quarter-finals in 2022, enters this year's tournament at a career-high No. 4 in the ATP Rankings.
