Thanks to the success in just two sets against the Chinese Zhang Zhizhen, Jannik Sinner reached the final of the Halle Open. The South Tyrolean didn’t have too many difficulties in overtaking his rival. It wasn’t a completely easy match, as the victory came only after yet another tie-break for the Italian in this tournament. But Sinner, with the sound of jams and winning passers, quickly got rid of his opponent. The South Tyrolean will now have to challenge the Pole Hubert Hurkaczwho overcame German Alexander Zverev in the semifinals.
“This final it means a lot to me, I get there after four tough games – said Sinner after the match -. It’s the best preparation for Wimbledon, then I’ll have a week of rest. Today I played a good match. In important moments I tried to serve well, I even had to cancel a set point. Tomorrow with Hurkacz it will be very tough. Playing the first final on grass here – he then added – is a great honor“

The blue player had to worry not only about the Chinese tennis player’s shots, but also about the Chinese tennis player’s shots also noise coming from the audience in the stands. Especially during his tour of duty. Sinner, as usual, had positioned himself just this side of the baseline. But, at a certain point, he felt himself a very strong sneeze, which forced the blue to interrupt his play. The world number one, instead of getting annoyed and protesting to the line judge, exploded in one thunderous laughter which also infected the spectators of the match. A small gesture that shows how Sinner is a really good guy.
