Jannik dominates the first set and reassembles a break of disadvantage in the second to hit the sixth semifinal of the season. And they are 40 seasonal victories
Jannik Sinner flies to the semifinal at the ATP 500 in Beijing with the forty victory of the year. The number two of the world beat the Hungarian Marozsan in two sets (6-1 7-5 in an hour and 20 minutes), in a game with two faces. Solid to the service, deadly in response in the first set, with the blue who perhaps tried less variations than the two previous matches, and they met. In the second set, also thanks to the opponent climbed by level, the South Tyrolean went a little to alternate phases.
the key
–
Marozsan, number 57 of the world but really excellent player when he is in the day, he also served to bring the game to the third, but he lost the joke to zero. Despite a second high -level set, he has shown that between him and Sinner, especially from a character point of view, there are different categories of difference. The feeling is that Jannik has pushed much more than the two previous rounds, taking off even of rust. It was also reviewed, especially in the first set (closed in just 26 minutes) a Sinner much more purpose in the answer, especially on the second of Marozsan, cannibalized thanks to the now famous advanced position on the opponent’s service, which allows him to counter and hurt.
the comeback
–
In the 2nd set Sinner made more effort, also risking losing the partial, with an empty passage on 4-3: he did not transform 4 break balls and then he lost the service with some mistakes too many (and some great play of Marozsan). Then, as he always knows how to do, he recovered with an impressive series of points: a partial of 12 points to one, also favored by the opponent’s tension. The percentage of first service stopped at 57%, today Sinner risked more in pulling the joke, and in fact it was seen in the higher speeds than in the previous days. Of course, in the second set, it didn’t go very well. For number two of the world is the third consecutive semifinal in Beijing, the sixth semifinal of 2025, the thirteenth in a row on the rapid. In all the tournaments that played this year on the cement, Jannik arrived at least in the final. To do this also in China, he will have to beat one of his favorite victims, Alex de Minaur (10-0 in the previous ones), who took advantage of the retirement of Messik in his quarter of a final on the 4-1 in favor of the Australian.
