Even in the Davis Cup, Jannik Sinner is present. Following his heroics at the ATP Finals, the Italian tennis star led his country to a quarterfinal triumph over the Netherlands. The challenge between Matteo Arnaldi and Botic van de Zandschulp in the indoor sporting arena of Malaga opens the dances. Our standard-bearer gave an outstanding performance, but after 2 hours and 48 minutes of fighting, he surrendered to his opponent with a score of 6-7(6) 6-2 7-6(7). Then came Sinner, who only had minor issues in the opening set against Tallon Griekspoor: 7-6(3) 6-1 was the final score of the match won by the world number four. One point on either side, then: the double was crucial. Sinner enters the court with Lorenzo Sonego, followed by Griekspoor and Wesley Koolhof. The Azzurri's performance was flawless: they pressed, served, and replied admirably. It can only end in victory: 6-3, 6-4. As a result, Italy wins 2 - 1. The semifinals will include a match against the Serbian superstar Djokovic.
