Sinner Extends Dominant Run Further
Jannik Sinner moved into the semifinal with a comfortable 6-3, 6-4 win over Felix Auger-Aliassime. It was a much smoother performance compared to his previous match against Tomas Machac.
This marks his third consecutive semifinal appearance in Monte Carlo. He lost at this stage to Holger Rune in 2023 and Stefanos Tsitsipas in 2024.
With this win, Sinner extended his Masters winning streak to 20 matches, including three titles, with 19 of those victories coming in straight sets.
He had a slow start to the season with losses to Novak Djokovic at the Australian Open and Jakub Mensik in Doha, but responded by winning 15 consecutive matches.
Sinner now enters this clash having won 18 of his last 19 semifinals on tour. At Masters level, he holds an 11-4 record in semifinals and is currently on a seven-match winning streak at this stage.
