Sinner coasts into the semis

Jannik Sinner (above) reached the last four of the ATP Finals on Wednesday after beating Alexander Zverev 6-4, 6-3 to qualify from the Bjorn Borg group with a match to spare.

World No 1 Sinner is bidding to retain his title at the prestigious end-of-season tournament and he cruised into the semifinals in front of a delighted crowd in Turin.

The 24-year-old was not at his best and struggled with a hand problem at the start of the match but still had more than enough to see off Zverev for the fifth time.

Zverev hasn't beaten Sinner since the 2023 US Open, being destroyed by the Italian in the semi finals of the recent Paris Masters, and again the German couldn’t handle the four-time Grand Slam champion.
