Jannik Sinner Breaks Novak Djokovic’s ATP Masters 1000 Mark
The steamroller that is Jannik Sinner keeps on rolling. The world No. 1 dispatched Andrey Rublev, 6-2, 6-4 on Thursday, to reach the Italian Open semifinals. It was Sinner‘s 27th straight match win and his 32nd in a row at the Masters 1000 level, breaking a tie with Novak Djokovic, considered by many the GOATGOAT of men’s tennis. “The amazing thing about this 32 matches in a row, and almost all of them,” Jimmy Arias said on Tennis Channel, “hes not losing sets to anyone.” Sinner is seeking to become the first homegrown Italian Open champion since Adriano Panatta in 1976. He will face either No. 7 Daniil Medvedev or Martín Landaluce in the semifinals. “I don‘t play for records, ” Sinner said. “I play just for my own story. At the same time it means a lot to me, but tomorrow is another opponent. We’re gonna play in different conditions. It‘s gonna be a night match. Let’s see. Now the highest priority for me is trying to recover as much as I can physically. We‘ll see how it goes. Emotionally it takes a lot playing here at home. At the same time I’ll definitely try to do my best. We see how it goes. In
