"We played a couple of times already, so you know a little bit what to expect. But in another way, with him, you never know what is happening. He deserved to be in the quarter-finals; he beat very tough opponents. I tried to stay focused from my side of the court and play as solid as possible, as he can have some ups and downs. I am trying to serve very well in important moments, which I have done," Jannik Sinner said after his victory.

"Against this kind of player, you have to be consistent because if you make a lot of mistakes, it is a game where if we both serve very well, there is already not so many rallies. I tried to get the rhythm with the rallies, I am very happy and happy with how I arrived in the semi-finals. Semi-finals in Grand Slams are very special, so I am looking forward to it," Sinner said on his win against Bublik.
