Melbourne, 23 January 2024 – Sinner against Rublev: it’s time for the quarter-finals at the Australian Open 2024. Players on the pitch only at 12.35, after delays inhours accumulated on Rod Laver Arena.
A meeting between equals Today, judging by the ATP ranking which sees the South Tyrolean at fourth place and the Russian in fifth. Looking instead at the precedents Sinner is the favourite, with 4 wins out of 6 (but in one case the Italian withdrew). Even bookmakers predict the 22 year old from Sesto Pusteria. The last two most recent matches (the round of 16 in Miami and the semi-final in Vienna) then shift the balance even further in our favor. Sinner comes from the success against Kachanov, not as clear as the result. The tennis player from San Candido struggled with his first serve, but maintained his clarity in the key moments of the match which he eventually brought home without excessive expenditure of energy. Yet another liquidated in three sets. On the other hand, Rublev’s path up to this point has been challenging, as he lost two sets in the first round to the Brazilian Seyboth Wild and above all comes from the battle in the round of 16 against the home tennis player De Minaur. Whoever wins reaches the semi-finals Novak Djokovic who beat the American Fritz in three sets.
