Felix Auger-Aliassime’s promising game in Cincinnati ended abruptly on Thursday.
Canadian tennis star dominated the world number one Jannik Sinner with a row of games (6-0, 6-2) in the Cincinnati Open quarterfinals.
Auger-Aliassime has performed well in the ATP Masters 1000 Championship, beating his three previous opponents, but he doesn’t have much chance to get to the highest ranking sinner.
The Italian superstar dominated from the start, breaking the spiral in Game 2 – Aliassime’s serve for a perfect first set.
Despite the fiercer second set scramble, Aliassime of the Russian Diamond broke Sinner’s serve in the opening game and served in the second game, but the Montreal will lose six straight games before eventually losing the game.
O’Driver – Aliassime struggled with non-compulsory mistakes, committing 28 times in Sinnner’s 12, two double shortcomings of the Italian.
Sina will now reach the semi-finals, where he awaits the winner of the match between France’s Terence Atmane and Denmark’s Holger Rune, which is scheduled for late Thursday.
