Jannik Sinner returns to the court Tuesday for his match in the round of 16 of the Madrid Masters 1000.

His opponent is veteran Cameron Norrie, surprisingly never faced in his career. The Italian is on a mission in Spain to win his fifth consecutive Masters 1000, a feat never achieved by anyone in the past.

The world number one will take the court Tuesday morning no earlier than 11 a.m. against the British tennis player. The match will be broadcast live on Sky Sports channels and streamed on Sky Go, NOW Tv and Tennis Tv platforms. Sinner is the last Italian left in the competition along with Flavio Cobolli, who will face Daniil Medvedev in his round of 16 match.

Norrie earned a pass to the round of 16 by overcoming Argentina’s Thiago Tirante in two sets with a score of 7-5, 7-6(5) at the end of a balanced match. The 30-year-old Johannesburg-born Briton and current No. 23 in the ATP rankings has already shown in his career that he can challenge the big names on the circuit: in the past he has managed to beat Carlos Alcaraz on three occasions, in Cincinnati in 2022, in the Rio final in 2023, and on the indoor fast court in Paris in late 2025.

Norrie himself did not hide his excitement for the challenge: “I’ve never faced him in a match, which is surprising, since we’ve been on the circuit for about five years. I’m happy to be able to challenge him, although every time we practice he always manages to put me in great difficulty. He has tremendous confidence, he is probably the most confident player on the circuit right now. It will be interesting to see how he goes,” the Briton told Sky Sports microphones. Norrie then anticipated his tactical approach, “I will try to put him under pressure, imposing my game and staying aggressive point by point. It will be a very tough challenge, but I’m really curious to face him for the first time.”

Sinner comes to the appointment on the strength of 19 consecutive wins on the circuit, having beaten Denmark’s Elmer Møller in the round of 16 with a clear 6-2, 6-3 in one hour and eighteen minutes. The South Tyrolean admitted that he struggled more than the scoreline suggests, explaining to Sky Sports microphones, “This match was totally different, but gradually I was able to push a little bit more. There wasn’t as much pace and I tried to serve well in the important moments.”
