Jannik Sinner continues its extraordinary journey towards the Finals and the history. The 20-year-old from South Tyrol beats, as expected, the Austrian Dennis Novak (116 of the ranking and in the race with a wild-card) and hits the quarterfinals in Vienna. For Jannik this is the 44th victory of the season, the 10th consecutive indoor level (surface on which he has not lost since mid-March), where he has not yet lost a set (20 won consecutively). Not only that, because Sinner gets even closer to Hurkacz in the Race to Torino (-30) and dismiss the bogeyman Norrie (+50 and eliminated by Auger-Aliassime). In the event of a semifinal, the South Tyrolean will overtake the Pole in the Race and will also virtually place himself in one historical Top 10. The obstacle, however, is level: Casper Ruud, fourth seeded, capable of beating a never domo Lorenzo Sonego per 7-5, 6-4, 4-6 after two hours and 42 ‘of battle. The previous one with the Norwegian, seventh in the Race, won by Jannik exactly twelve months ago on the concrete in Vienna.
