5º Set Sinner (3-6 3-6 6-4 6-4 6-3) Medvedev

GAME, SET AND AUSTRALIAN OPEN FOR SINNER. 

 

The Italian wins his first Grand Slam of his career after coming from behind, despite losing the first two sets.The Italian won his first Grand Slam of his career after coming from behind, despite losing the first two sets. At the end of his second set he changed his game as his coach asked him to do and he was improving. From that point on he was improving and the fatigue was coming in both players. Sinner was able to get his moments to break and did so also in the fifth set. Great role of Daniil, but again as in his two previous finals he loses again.

News - Jannik Sinner

The 22-year-old tennis player is ranked No. 4 in the world and has 10 titles to his name, four of them this past year. Among them, he won his first Masters 1000 in Canada. 


After winning the Davis Cup with Italy to cap a great year, he decided not to play any tournament before the Australian Open. He played only two exhibition matches against Ruud and Polmans and in both he won in two sets. 

The Italian is having a fantastic Australian Open where he has defeated Van de Zandschulp, De Jong, Baez, Khachanov, and Rublev. Although his most important victory and surely the one of his career has been defeating Novak Djokovic at the Australian Open, in a match in which the young Italian was clearly dominant. He defeated the ten-time Australian Open winner, although he dropped his first set in this Australian Open. Thanks to this triumph he will play his first Grand Slam final.

Dannil Medvedev, 27-year-old Russian tennis player, who is number 3 in the world, has 20 titles in his career, including a Grand Slam, which he achieved in 2021. In 2023 was the year he won five titles, including two Masters 1000. 


He is looking to win this Australian Open where in 2022 he had it very close by winning the first two sets, but lost to Rafa Nadal. He has already overcome the round of the last edition where he had an early elimination, in the round of 32. 

 

In this edition he started winning against Atmane, who retired in the fourth set. In the second round he had a hard time, as he lost the first two sets against the Finnish Ruusuvuori, but he turned it around. He had an easier time defeating Auger Aliassime or Nuno Borges, although the Portuguese won a set. In the quarterfinals he faced a real battle against the Polish Hurkacz where the Russian won in five sets and almost 4 hours of match. In the semifinals he also had to pull epic to defeat Zverev. The German won the first two sets, but Daniil turned it around, winning two of them in the tie-break. This will be his third time reaching the final of the Australian Open, although neither of the two previous times he managed to win.
