Jannik Sinner wins ‘impossible’ point against Tomas Machac

A dominant Jannik Sinner notched a comfortable 6-4 6-2 win over Andy Murray’s conqueror Tomas Machac to reach the semi-finals of the Miami Open.

The Italian produced a squeaky-clean performance to oust Czech Machac after converting four of his 11 break chances across 91 minutes.

Sinner, the world No 3, is into the last four for a third time having reached the final in 2021 and 2023, and will get a rematch of last year’s final against defending champion Daniil Medvedev after the third-seeded Russian later beat Nicolas Jarry of Chile 6-2 7-6.
