Jannik leads 4-6 6-4 6-1, one step from third round

Jannik is now playing with ease and seems to have found the countermeasures for the Australian who has become anything but dangerous. 5-1 for the blues and a set which seems to be in the safe.

Sinner seems to have found the right rhythm and is now flying in this third set. Double break for Jannik who is now 4-0 and seems to be able to extend further. The Australian collapsed.

Sinner took advantage of Schoolgate’s physiological decline and secured a draw in the sets, winning the second. From now on, the scenario of the match is decidedly different: it is no coincidence that the break arrived in the first third set.

Lorenzo Sonego reaches the third round of the Australian Open! The Brazilian Fonseca was beaten in five sets with a display full of courage and character. Nothing to do for Berrettini beaten in 4 by Rune.

Jannik Sinner finally breaks Schoolkate’s serve, scoreless. A situation which perhaps allows him to break a real spell, facing the surprising Australian who has been impeccable until now.

He uses Sinner’s aces on his turn of duty to stay in the wake of Schoolkate who is almost perfect at times. The world number one is increasing the pressure to complicate the Australian’s plans.

Sinner’s original gestures towards his corner. The Italian tennis player spoke about some shots that narrowly missed. Schoolkate keeps pushing, with Jannik the protagonist of many mistakes that are unlike her. You need the spark.

Schoolkate is celebrating and rightly so. It ended a streak of 29 consecutive sets won by the Blues, breaking a spell that had lasted more than 100 days for Jannik.

Surprise start to Sinner’s match as he finds himself down a set against Schoolkate. Superb first set from the Australian who pushes hard and surprises Jannik, apparently in difficulty.

More complicated match than expected for Sinner against Schoolkate who had an excellent first set. The awareness is that he cannot decline his performances against the world number one.

Jannik has to deal with the excellent moment of Schoolkate who seems in great shape so far. A little too much difficulty for Sinner who undoubtedly takes the measures of his opponent.

Berrettini’s match once again becomes difficult after losing the third set. Matteo is still forced to recover. Sonego, on the other hand, led 2-1, will have to face a complicated situation: led 3-0

The match between Sinner and Schoolkate has begun, with the Australian tennis player looking determined to play a hard-hitting match. Maximum attention from Jannik against a boy who has nothing to lose.

Well done Lorenzo Sonego who, with formidable character, won the second set, putting the result in a draw in terms of partials. 1-1 and everything has to be done again for Fonseca.

Fatal tie-breaks for Berrettini and Sonego. The two Blues lost the first set, practically at the same time. Matteo goes to Rune after losing two set points, Lorenzo after losing three set points. Meanwhile, Lucia Bronzetti is absent among the women, eliminated by Cristian.

Two set points not used by Matteo Berrettini in the first set at 5-3 and on serve. Bravo Rune for recovering with the counterattack and reopening the discussion. Everything has to be redone for blue.

While waiting for Sinner scheduled at 9 a.m. at the earliest, Sonego and Berrettini are on the field facing Joao Fonseca and Holger Rune respectively. In the women’s competition, Lucia Bronzetti has a set against Cristian.

Lorenzo Musetti advances to the third round of the Australian Open for the first time. The tennis player from Carrara, the first Italian to enter the court today, beat Shapovalov in three sets with an authoritarian match. Now see you in the next match against Shelton.

There is only a little left before the start of Berrettini’s match: in a few moments the Italian will challenge Rune in one of the most anticipated matches of the second round of the men’s singles.

Sinner’s match is different since he will instead face a virtually unknown player, Tristan Schoolkate. The 2001-born Australian wears ATP number 173 and has won just two matches on the major tour, one in August at the US Open and one on his home tournament debut. For the first time in his career, he could have the chance to be among the top 150 tennis players in the rankings.

Sonego will be called upon to take on the difficult task of beating Fonseca, the new phenomenon of world tennis. The Brazilian of 2006 is the big surprise of the Australian Open and for some, he is already the “new sinner”: last year, he then won his first victories on the ATP circuit, his first success in Challenge and the auspicious triumph at the ATP Next Gen Finals. .

Many Italians will be on the field today in Melbourne, starting with Musetti who will face Shapovalov, followed by Sonego’s challenge against Fonseca: these will be the first two matches for the Italians which will not start until 1:00 a.m. Bronzetti-Cristian will not be there until 4:30 p.m., while from 7:00 a.m. Berrettini will take the field against Rune.

At the end of the Italian morning, two other Italians will participate in the Australian Open: from 9:00 a.m., Sinner will face Schoolkate, followed by Paolini who will face Zarazua in the second match.

Much attention will be paid to Sinner’s second Australian match, which will be played against local tennis player Schoolkate who has only two victories to his name. Both men will enter the field no earlier than 9:00 a.m. Italian time, and the match will be visible on television on Eurosport, Sky and DAZN, and in streaming with DAZN, Sky Go, NOW and Discovery+.

Very rich program for the Italians engaged in the second round of the Australian Open. The big names Berrettini, Sonego and Sinner face off on the hard courts of Melbourne: the Turin native is given the most difficult task as he faces the very young phenomenon Fonseca.
