Sinner US Open Analysis
The young Italian had serious problems overcoming his last opponent, the Belarusian Ilya Ivashka. Although Ivashka is above the top 50 in the ATP rankings, he had already beaten players in the top 50 like Musetti, and even the 10th-ranked Hurkacz. So Sinner did not have it so easy and had to battle for five sets, which lasted a total of 3 hours and 48 minutes.

Each of them alternated a set until the fifth and final set, which started with a breakpoint converted by the Croatian, Alcaraz had to play his best version to turn the score around and advance to the next round.
