Jannik Sinner vs Alex De Minaur LIVE: Australian Open latest score and updates from blockbuster quarter-final

Sinner looks to book his place in the semi-finals when he faces Australia’s De Minaur. Jannik Sinner hopes to join Novak Djokovic and Alexander Zverev in the semi-finals of the Australian Open when he faces off against home favourite Alex De Minaur at the Rod Laver Arena this morning.
Sinner has had a relatively easy time of things so far and avoided a potential stumbling block with a four-set victory over Holger Rune in the fourth round. The World No. 1 is the favourite to go on and win this tournament but knows he’ll be up against a hostile crowd for his clash with De Minaur.
The 25-year-old Australian has dropped just one set on his way to the last eight, in a tie-break against Francisco Cerundolo, and looks in good touch ahead of what will be his most difficult match of the competition to date. The winner of this one will face Ben Shelton or Lorenzo Sonego with the United States’ Shelton currently two sets up in their quarter-final tie.
Earlier in the day, Iga Swiatek cruised past Emma Navarro 6-1, 6-2 in their Women’s Singles quarter-final while Madison Keys secured a surprising 3-6, 6-3, 6-4 victory over Elina Svitolina to set up a meeting with Swiatek tomorrow.

The match has been scheduled last on Rod Laver Arena, and will follow the men’s quarter-final between Ben Shelton and Lorenzo Sonego. The pair are due on court from 8.30am though that could be pushed back depending on the result of the earlier quarter-final.
