Jannik Sinner wins the challenge against Daniil Medvedev and reaches the semifinals of the US Open for the first time in his career. The Italian, world number one, wins in four sets – 6/2, 1/6, 6/1, 6/4 – and wins the 13th match against the Russian tennis player, his ‘master-rival’, fifth in the ATP ranking. A razor-sharp forehand gives the victory to the Italian tennis player who ignites the crowd in the stands of Arthur Ashe, the central court of Flushing Meadows in New York. The 23-year-old from Sesto Pusteria will meet in the semifinals the British Jack Draper (22 years old, number 25 in the ATP ranking) who beat Alex De Minaur.
