World No. Jannik Sinner delivered a commanding performance at the French Open, dismantling 17th seed Andrey Rublev 6-1, 6-3, 6-4 to secure his spot in the quarterfinals on Monday night. Sinner’s relentless baseline play and tactical precision left Rublev struggling to find any foothold in the match, as the Italian fired 25 winners and saved all three break points he faced.
With this straight-sets victory, Sinner extends his Grand Slam winning streak to matches and remains undefeated in sets at this year’s Roland Garros, having dropped only 30 games across four rounds The top seed’s mental resilience was on display, especially in the final set when Rublev attempted a late push but could not convert his only break chance since the opening game.
Sinner’s next challenge is unseeded Alexander Bublik, with a semifinal berth on the line. The Italian, already a three-time Grand Slam champion, is eyeing his first French Open title and a third consecutive major trophy after his US Open and Australian Open triumphs.
The men’s quarterfinals continue with marquee matchups including Alexander Zverev vs. Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz vs. Tommy Paul, but all eyes are now on Sinner as he chases history in Paris.
