Jannik Sinner, will beà rematch with Holger Rune
Holger Rune again on Jannik Sinner’s way in the Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters. In fact, after the South Tyrolean’s victory over Jan-Lennard Struff, the Danish tennis player joined him in the quarterfinals, thanks to his success over Grigor Dimitrov at the end of a real marathon, which lasted a good three and a half hours of play.
7-6 3-6 7-6 the result in favor of the world number seven, who also had to cancel as many as two match-points to the Bulgarian. Rune, who had also had to overcome India's Sumit Nagal in the morning, è been on the court for 5 hours only on Thursday and will surely arrive more tired at the date than Sinner, who took just over an hour and a quarter to fold Struff.
Friday will be an opportunity for Sinner to take his revenge one year later. In fact, in the semifinal of last year’s edition of the Principality’s Masters 1000 the winner was Rune, who beat the Italian in a comeback in the third set (1-6 7-5 7-5). The previous totals say 2-1 for the Dane, who also è won in the 2022 Sofia semifinals. Jannik's only win è came in the round of the last ATP Finals.
