Jannick Sinner He is one of the top favorites to win the Australian Open. The best proof of this is the quarterfinal match this Wednesday that he played with Alex de Minaur. The Italian defeated the local idol in just three sets (6-3, 6-2, 6-1) in just 1 hour and 48 minutes.
But another favorite is Novak Djokovicwho has lifted the Grand Slam trophy as many as 10 times. The Serbian gave another performance to remember in the quarterfinals match Carlos Alcaraz and beat the Spaniard in four sets at 37 years old.
If the Serbian can beat Zverev in the semis and Sinner does the same against Shelton, the two will meet in Sunday’s grand final. Asked about the level of Nole’s match against Alcaraz, the world number 1 was very clear.
“I saw the match between Novak and Carlos. It was an incredible match. It’s hard to see these confrontations in the quarterfinals, they should be finals or semifinals. Carlos and Novak’s is the best rivalry we have in tennis today. There was an incredible exchange, Young players will come, we’ll see if new rivalries emerge,” Sinner said on court after sealing his place in the semifinals.
