Tennis. ATP tournament final. Djokovic – Sinner. Direct
On Tuesday, November 14, during the ATP Finals Tournament, which takes place these days at the Pala Alpitour arena in Turin, Italy, the matches of the second round of the group stage of the green group will take place. The outsiders of the quartet will meet in the afternoon – the Greek Stefanos Tsitsipas and the Dane Holger Rune. Both lost their first matches.
But late in the evening, in the second match of the day, the favorites of the group, winners at the start of the tournament, will meet – Serbian Novak Djokovic and Italian Jannik Sinner. Both performed well in their first matches, are now in simply excellent form, and it is possible that we can see this pair of participants in the final match of the tournament, unless, of course, Russians Daniil Medvedev and Andrei Rublev does not intervene. this dispute.
In personal meetings, Jannik Sinner is inferior to the current legend of world tennis, Novak Djokovic. In fact, the tennis players faced each other three times and each time the Serbian won. In 2021, Novak beat the young Italian at the Monte-Carlo Masters in the 2nd round (6:4, 6:2).
And the other two confrontations between them took place at Wimbledon. Last year, Sinner almost created a sensation by leading 2:0 in sets in the quarter-final match. However, Djokovic caught himself in time, first managing to turn the tide of the match, and then putting the finishing touches on Yannick – 5:7, 2:6, 6:3, 6:2, 6:2. In the same year, Novak did not give his opponent a lead and won in three sets – 6:3, 6:4, 7:6. The match also took place as part of the semi-finals of the tournament.
To the above it should be added that tennis players have never met in a face-to-face match on a hard surface. It can also be noted that Sinner was never in such excellent shape before meeting Djokovic. Yannick defeated Stefanos Tsitsipas very confidently at the start of the tournament (6:4, 6:4), and in general he was on fire during the autumn campaign, winning titles in Beijing and Vienna (by the way , in both tournaments he beat Daniil Medvedev in the final). The Italian would surely have succeeded at the Paris Masters, but due to the terrible schedule, he decided to withdraw from the tournament in order to preserve his strength and health for the final, which takes place in Sinner’s native country.
As for Djokovic, Novak beat Dane Holger Rune in the opening match. However, this victory was given to the Serb with great difficulty – 7:6, 6:7, 6:3. However, the six-time winner of the final tournaments has already achieved his main goal of the season. Djokovic ended the year as world number one for the eighth time and received the corresponding Cup yesterday. However, this does not mean that Novak will play the remaining matches of the tournament carelessly. The ambitious Serbian is always hungry for victories, so a big match awaits us.
