Jannik Sinner needed only 69 minutes to breeze past defending champion Daniil Medvedev and reach the Miami Open final.<\/b><\/p>\n
Second seed Sinner dominated a one-sided semi-final and swept Russia’s Medvedev aside 6-1 6-2.<\/p>\n
The match was a repeat of January’s Australian Open final, which Italian Sinner, 22, won in five sets.<\/p>\n
“I felt great on court today,” he told Sky Sports. “I served very well, especially in important moments.”<\/p>\n
Sinner will face the winner of Friday’s second semi-final between Grigor Dimitrov or Alexander Zverev in his fourth ATP Masters final on Sunday. <\/p>\n
If he wins the event in Florida, Sinner will move up one place in the world rankings to number two – replacing double Grand Slam champion Carlos Alcaraz. <\/p>\n
Sinner added: “I handled the situation well in the beginning of each set. [Medvedev] had some break chances – if he makes them then it’s already much different, so I’m very happy.” <\/p>\n
World number four Medvedev – who beat Sinner last year to lift the Miami title – made 22 unforced errors during the match and was jeered by the crowd inside the Hard Rock Stadium after two wild mistakes in the second set. <\/p>\n
“I think Daniil didn’t play his best today, he missed some shots which he usually doesn’t miss,” said Sinner. “But I took the chance and I’m very happy to be in the final.”<\/p>\n
Sinner has only lost one match so far this season, falling to a last-four defeat at Indian Wells two weeks ago to eventual winner Alcaraz. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
