Jannik Sinner Storms Into Rome Semi-finals With A Dominant Win Over Andrey Rublev
Career Golden Masters: World No.1 Jannik Sinner moved within two victories of winning his first Italian Open title after beating Andrey Rublev 6-2, 6-4 to reach the semi-finals of the ATP Masters 1000 event on Thursday. Last year’s runner-up delivered another strong performance in front of the home crowd, mixing solid baseline play with aggressive shot-making to control the match in the Italian capital.
With the win, Sinner joined Rafael Nadal as the only players to reach the semi-finals at the first five Masters 1000 tournaments of a season. Nadal achieved the feat in 2010 and 2011. Sinner has already won titles this year at Indian Wells, Miami, Monte-Carlo, and Madrid, and another title in Rome would put him alongside Novak Djokovic as the only men to complete the Career Golden Masters.
"He's a very dangerous player," Sinner said of Rublev. "When he plays at his highest level, he's very tough to beat. I felt like we both didn't play at our best today, but the conditions are very tough here. So, I tried to adapt myself in the best possible way. I'm obviously very happy. It's a very special tournament for me."
