ATP FINALS: Fritz and Sinner reach Semi-final

Jannik Sinner continued his flawless performance at the ATP Finals in Turin with a commanding 6-3, 6-4 victory over Daniil Medvedev, securing his place at the top of the Ilie Nastase group. With a perfect 3-0 record in the round-robin stage, Sinner, the world No. 1, had already confirmed his semi-final spot after Taylor Fritz’s win over Alex de Minaur earlier in the day. Medvedev, needing a straight-set victory to advance, was ultimately eliminated.

Sinner’s dominance in the match was evident from the outset. He served superbly, losing just two points on serve in the first set, while Medvedev struggled with unforced errors—17 in total. Sinner broke at 5-3 to clinch the first set and, after a brief response from Medvedev, broke again at 4-4 in the second set to seal the win. Sinner’s clinical performance, which extended his remarkable season tally to 68 wins from 74 matches, delighted the home crowd.

Sinner, who has already secured two Grand Slam titles this year, expressed gratitude for his team and support system, emphasizing his focus on improvement. "I'm here trying to find new ways to improve as a player," he said after the match. He remains unshaken despite the ongoing doping controversy that has followed him this year.
