Jannik Sinner against Alex de Minaur – LIVE today
Jannik Sinner has reached the semi-finals of the Australian Open. The South Tyrolean hardly gave Alex de Minaur a chance on Wednesday, defeating the local hero 6:3, 6:2 and 6:1. The world number one will now face the American Ben Shelton on Friday.
Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen Sinner sent out an impressive signal to the competition in the Rod Laver Arena. De Minaur never found a means against the superior South Tyrolean in front of his home crowd. Sinner only conceded one break point in the entire match and his working day was over after 1:48 hours. For the 23-year-old, who was still suffering from health problems in the round of 16, it was his tenth win in his tenth duel with the Australian, who is two years his senior. "When you're young, you recover quickly. I tried to rest as much as possible to be ready," said Sinner.
His record against the up-and-coming Shelton is also excellent, with four wins in a total of five encounters. The 22-year-old, who comes from a tennis family, defeated Sonego after just under four hours. This is Shelton's second semi-final at a Grand Slam event. In 2023, he lost to Djokovic at the US Open.
