A hard-earned comeback victory for Jannik Sinner, who by imposing with a score of 4-6 7-5 6-4 over Rublev è became the first Italian to reach the semifinals in Cincinnati in the Open era.
After losing the first set, the South Tyrolean also trembled in the second when he è found himself one step away from suffering a break that would have sent his opponent to serve for the match victory but in the end he got away with it and overturned the result and in the third there was no history.
Sinner, who will face the winner between Zverev and Shelton, brought home another 100 important points in terms of ranking, stretching out his pursuers to the world number one throne and in particular Carlos Alcaraz, who was defeated on Friday by surprise.
