Sinner Dominates Bublik to Reach US Open Quarter-Finals, Sets Up All-Italian Match with Musetti
Jannik Sinner advanced to the US Open quarter-finals with a commanding 6-1, 6-1, 6-1 victory over Alexander Bublik, taking only 81 minutes to complete the match. Sinner, who is bidding for his fifth Grand Slam title, extended his winning streak at hard-court majors to 25 matches, just two short of Novak Djokovic's record. Bublik, who had previously won all 55 of his service games in the tournament, struggled with double faults and errors, and was outplayed by Sinner’s aggressive and athletic game. This win marks Sinner’s most one-sided Grand Slam victory and ties his record for the most dominant Slam win. Sinner’s performance was particularly impressive given Bublik’s recent tough five-set win over Tommy Paul. The Italian will face Lorenzo Musetti in an all-Italian quarter-final, with Sinner holding a 2-0 head-to-head advantage. Meanwhile, Amanda Anisimova continued her impressive run, defeating Beatriz Haddad Maia in straight sets to reach the quarter-finals, where she will face second seed Iga Swiatek. The tournament's matches have largely been dominated by straight-set victories, highlighting a trend of one-sided matches in the early rounds.
