The number 1 in the world ranking took a 4-0 lead in the first set before Bublik appeared on the scoreboard. Boebliks attempts to disturb Sinner’s rhythm were in vain.

“We know each other well and played a number of spicy matches this year,” said the Italian about the game. Boeblik did not serve as well, according to the defending champion. “I broke him in every set and that gave me the confidence to play well.”
This year Sinner won the Australian Open and Wimbledon. He lost a lead of two sets against Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz in the final of Roland Garros. At the Net Bublik showed his awe for Sinner. “You are so good, it is disturbed,” he said laughing to the number one.
Sinner takes on Lorenzo Musetti from Italy in the quarterfinals. The Italian placed tenth in three sets of Spaniard Jaume Munar: 6-3 6-0 6-1.
Amanda Anisimova
The American tennis star Amanda Anisimova reached the quarterfinals with the women. The 24-year-old number 8 of the placement list on the Grandslam tournament of New York, pupil of the Dutch coach Rick Vleeshouwers, was convincing in the fourth round with the Brazilian Beatriz Haddad Maia. She awarded her opponent three games: 6-0 6-3.
Anisimova meets Iga Swiatek in the quarterfinals and the American keeps a painful memory of the Polish. Earlier this year, Anisimova suffered a hopeless defeat against Swiatek in the final of Wimbledon. Anisimova dripped off without having won a game (0-6 0-6).
She said after her match against Haddad Maia to look out at the new confrontation with Swiatek. “I am super enthusiastic. Who would have thought we would see each other again so quickly? It will hopefully be a great game this time.”
Demi Schuurs in the quarterfinal doubles
Demi Schurs is in the quarterfinals of the doubles. With her American double partner Asia Muhammad, Schuurs defeated the duo Anna Danilina from Kazakhstan and Aleksandra Krunic from Serbia in three sets: 6-2 4-6 6-4.
In the quarterfinals, Schuurs and Muhammad meet the winners of the party between the second placed Jasmine Paolini and Sara Errani from Italy and the couple Fanny Stollar from Hungary and Wu Fang-Hsien from Taiwan.
