Nadal is a semi-finalist at Garros

Preparing for his 13th victory in Paris, Nadal and his rival, just 19 years old, fought a fierce battle in the first game. Sinner brought his serving games almost confidently all the way, and managed to take Nadal's serve at 5: 5. Then, however, he trembled, unable to outsource the set, and was more inaccurate in his acronym than his opponent.

The missed opportunity didn’t seem to break the young Italian tennis player, who played better than his Spanish opponent at the start of the second game, but despite gaining a 3: 1 advantage, Nadal quickly broke back. In addition, in the hair of the section, Nadal won Sinner's organ again at 4: 4 and eventually took the set with 6: 4.

For the sequel, the Spaniard played more and more tennis, and Sinner could not resist him, so Nadal won the third game smoothly, meeting the 12th-ranked Argentine Diego Schwartzman in the semi-finals.

Interestingly, the South American athlete preparing for the first Grand Slam semifinal of his career defeated the Spanish slag king in September, in the Roman tournament preceding Roland Garros, for the first time in his career.
