ROTTERDAM, Netherlands (AP) — Jannik Sinner eased into the final of the ABN Amro Open on Saturday in his first tournament since winning the Australian Open.
The top-seeded Sinner spoiled local hopes by ousting Dutch player Tallon Griekspoor 6-2, 6-4 in the semifinals, where Sinner also won their first matchup a year ago.
His second straight Rotterdam final will be against fifth-seeded Alex de Minaur, who eliminated sixth-seeded Grigor Dimitrov 6-4, 6-3.
“It doesn’t really matter what’s happened in the past,” Sinner said of his perfect 6-0 record against the Australian. “I saw him play today. He played really, really good. I hope I can also play some good tennis tomorrow.”
