High superior and also inviolable for Andrey Rublev: Jannik Sinner moved into the quarter -finals at the French Open without any problems and set the next exclamation mark.

The world ranking list from Italy won 6: 1, 6: 3, 6: 4 on Monday evening and won his 18th match at Grand-Slam tournaments in a row.

Sinner, who had only returned to the tour at the beginning of May after the end of his three -month doping lock, now meets the Kazakh Alexander Bustram in the round of the last eight, who had caused a surprise with a 5: 7, 6: 3, 6: 2, 6: 4 against the British.

“This is the best moment of my life,” said Bukik afterwards and fought with the tears: “I can’t cry here, come, stop. Let me in peace. I still have a match in front of me, I am a professional tennis player and have to be ready.” Especially since a maximum swim is waiting for him.

Sinner was once more in impressive form and gave the tone against Rublev with force and finesse from the start. Although the Russian was bitterly resistant and increased particularly in the third round, Sinner always had the duel under control. The favorite finally converted its first match ball after exactly two hours of play.
