Sinner’s words

Australian Open, results
Jannik Sinner è was not the only Italian star of the Italian night at the Australian Open. In fact, the feat of the day was achieved by Lucia Bronzetti, who defeated Vika Azarenka 6-2 7-6(2) in the opener of the first Slam of the season (with a record prize pool of 96.5 million Australian dollars).
In Melbourne, the Romagnola has thus eliminated the number 24 in the ranking and 21 in the seeding, twice triumphant in Melbourne (2012 and 2013) but capable of reaching the semifinals again two years ago.
Out instead Elisabetta Cocciaretto, No. 56 WTA, defeated 76(4) 64 by Russian Diana Shnaider, No. 13 in the ranking and 12 in the seeding after missing two set points in the first partial.
There will be no Fabio Fognini but Francesco Passaro to challenge Grigor Dimitrov in the first round of the Australian Open. The Perugia native, number 104, è took over as a lucky loser from the Ligurian, who was forced to forfeit before taking the court. In his first match of the year, in qualifying in Adelaide, he had retired after five games.

Sinner in the second round
A tiring but winning debut at the Australian Open for Jannik Sinner, who on the concrete in Melbourne as the tournament s defending champion beat Chilean Nicolás Jarry, world number 35, in three sets with a score of 7-6, 7-6, 6-1 in 2 hours and 42 minutes of play.
The South Tyrolean in the first set had to nullify two break points, even missing one in his favor, but in the tie-break he upped the tempo, extending his positive streak. The second set also followed the service turns until the new winning epilogue. Without history the third set where Sinner’s opponent è collapsed.
In the next round the Azure will find Australian wild card Tristan Schoolkate or Japan’s Taro Daniel, both rivals well within his reach as he waits to start getting serious from the round of 16 onward, if the projected top seeds do not leave the scene first.
Sinner, undefeated since the Beijing final against Carlos Alcaraz, scored his 15th win in a row, thus equaling his second-longest winning streak in his career. The South Tyrolean also has not lost a set since his third-round match in Shanghai in 2024 against Argentina’s Tomas Martin Etcheverry.
