More impressive than ever, the world number one swept Alex de Minaur (6-3, 6-2, 6-1) in less than two hours.
Now undefeated for 19 matches, the defending champion who has won 33 of his last 34 matches, inflicted a tenth defeat in ten matches on the Australian de Minaur, completely overwhelmed by events. The world number 8 dreamed of becoming the first Australian crowned at home since Mark Edmonson in 1976. A dream has passed… Sinner becomes, for his part, the first player from his country to reach the final four of the first Grand Slam of the season. He also equals his compatriot Nicola Pietrangeli in the ranking of the number of semi-finals played in a Grand Slam by an Italian player (5) and will become the sole record holder if he again reaches the last four of a major tournament at the future.
Imperial in service, counterattack, defense, the 23-year-old champion disgusted his opponent. Physically worried during his round of 16 against Holger Rune, won in 3h05 and 4 rounds, Jannik Sinner seemed overwhelmed by the heat and admitted to having suffered from “dizziness”. Under much milder temperatures (around twenty degrees), Sinner was completely reassured this Wednesday and remains the favorite for his own succession. The American Ben Shelton, who had the last word against Lorenzo Sonego, will have to achieve a feat to bring down the boss. World No.1 Jannik Sinner, defending champion in Melbourne, scored a 19th victory in a row on Wednesday to secure his place in the semi-finals of the Australian Open, where he will face the American Ben Shelton (20th) .
