World number one, Jannik Sinner, continues his quest for a first title at Roland Garros as he takes on Alexander Bublik today in the quarter-finals. Nearing the fag end of the tournament, Sinner continues to display a high-level of tennis despite missing out on 3 months of action. <\/p>
Bublik, meanwhile, has surprised quite a few with his run in the French capital thus far. A lot is at stake for both players, with the winner proceeding to play either Alexander Zverev or Novak Djokovic in the semi-final<\/a>. <\/p> Sinner’s strong run at this year’s French Open, following his run to the final in Rome, just goes to prove why he is the number one player on tour presently. Lacking match practice and entering the year’s second Grand Slam with just a handful of matches on clay, the Italian’s level remains as high as ever. <\/p> Sinner has yet to drop a set so far and has cruised his way to victory in his matches thus far. He took out Arthur Rinderknech and home favorite Richard Gasquet in the first and second rounds, while making quick work of Jiri Lehecka and Andrey Rublev in the third and fourth rounds respectively. <\/p> Sinner has won 82% of his service games while saving 58% of break points faced on clay this year. However, his return stats are even more impressive, winning nearly 40% of the 56 return games he has played and converting on 47% of the break points. <\/p>Jannik Sinner vs Alexander Bublik Preview<\/h2>
