The Wimbledon mission for Jannik Sinner proceeds without hitches. The number one in the world was getting rid of three sets by the Australian Aleksandar Vukic, number 93 in the world, with a score of 6-1 6-1 6-3 in an hour and 34 minutes. Never in the balance and a clear supremacy of Italian, which brought to 22 wins and a single defeat its booty in the last four Slam, with the only stop against Carlos Alcaraz in the Roland Garros final.

dominant

It is a dominant sinner. With only 12 games lost in the first two rounds, it is the second best start in the Championships after Federer’s in 2004, when the Swiss lost 9 games. From the meeting with Vukic, however, good indications arrived, as a service finally above 60% of the first (62%) and a joke never lost during the meeting (four saved break balls). Some problems in the supports, with Jannik who seemed to slip sometimes too much, but nothing to worry about.

Six match point

Sinner closed the match at the sixth match point, also canceling a break ball while needed for the match. “I am very happy with my game today, it is never easy, I played well from the bottom of the field and I also tried to do well on the net. I want to thank the audience of the Center Court for having been with me to the end, it was a long day,” said the South Tyrolean. “I am very happy with the result, playing with him is very difficult. I tried to be solid from Fondo Campo, I struggled to close the game, but the central field is always a special occasion, thanks for being staying – Sinner said -. Every game is difficult but I am satisfied with being in the third round. I had fun in the last game to talk to the public, also because I won it, that game”.

next turn

“The matches can change at any moment – the blue says -, I am also happy to have finished with the open roof, because the conditions can change. I managed to put that last hand -of -straight passing out thanks to my racket”. On the next opponent, he says: “Pedro Martinez? My team is already ready, all games are important and you have to stay concentrated to raise the level. I can still improve and I can’t wait to take the field again”.
