There’s really no way of discounting what Sinner has done at this event. The Italian has had to deal with a ton mentally, as everybody has something to say about his doping tests. Dealing with that internally isn’t easy. However, Sinner played some of his best tennis of the season against Daniil Medvedev in the quarterfinals. Outside of a strange second set in which the Russian won 6-1, Sinner handled Medvedev pretty easily. In the end, it was a 6-2, 1-6, 6-1, 6-4 victory in favor of the 23-year-old. Sinner was ridiculous from the baseline, pounding the ball from one side to the other. Medvedev tried his best to match Sinner’s power, but it comes so easy for the Italian. For Medvedev, it means risking unforced errors. And he piled up 57 of them. That’s not normal for Medvedev.
Sinner now looks like he’s heading back to the final of a major, and he should ultimately win this tournament. DraftKings Sportsbook has him listed at -230 to do it from here. But that doesn’t mean that Sinner is going to make easy work of Draper. The Brit might not be a household name yet, but he’s one of the rising stars in men’s tennis. He has also played at a very high level since arriving in New York. Draper has had a pretty good draw to this point, but the Brit hasn’t yet dropped a set. He also played Alex de Minaur in the quarterfinals, and that was a match that easily could have tested him.
