Tennis, Sinner wins semi-final against Fils in Madrid

First career final for Jannik Sinner in the Madrid 1000 Masters. The world number 1 overcame Frenchman Arthur Fils (No. 25 in the Atp ranking) in two sets with a score of 6-2, 6-4 in one hour and 25 minutes and without conceding any break points. In the final the South Tyrolean will face the winner of the other semi-final between German No. 3 Alexander Zverev and Belgian AlexanderBlockx.

The Sinner-Fils challenge took place while news about Alcaraz's possible stoppage well beyond Roland Garros due to the wrist injury was bouncing around: the latest on the Spaniard's condition comes from Marca, which reports the statements of doctor Martinez Romero: "It's a problem that resolves itself with treatment and rest in most cases. An acute tenosivitis has a recovery period of 4 to 6 weeks, but if the injury is earlier and has become chronic we can also talk about a recovery period of 3 to 6 months: this would mean the end of the season for him'.
