Stefanos Tsitsipas stormed into his third Australian Open semi-final with a blistering straight-sets victory over Jannik Sinner on Wednesday. The Greek fourth seed played his best tennis yet in the year's opening major to romp past the 11th-seeded Italian 6-3, 6-4, 6-2 in 2hr 6min and into a semi-final against either Daniil Medvedev or Felix Auger-Aliassime.
It was a most impressive performance from the world number four who grasped control of the quarter-final on Rod Laver Arena with a break in Sinner's opening service game and did not relinquish his firm grip.
"My humility helped a lot today, I knew I was going out on the court to face a very good player," Tsitsipas said.
"I just focused on my very best shots and it paid off better than I thought.
"Stepping on the court and having the crowd support is truly unbelievable."
