Whatever happens, a new name will be included in the list of winners at the Australian Open, Sunday January 28, in Melbourne. On one side, Daniil Medvedev, unfortunate double finalist at the Rod Laver Arena, beaten in 2021 by Novak Djokovic and in 2022 by Rafael Nadal. The Russian hopes that this third final will finally be the right one, he who will be playing his sixth Grand Slam and who has only won one: the 2021 US Open.

Led by two sets in the semi-finals by Alexander Zverev, the world number 3 came from very far to reach this level. But his achievement did not eclipse that of Jannik Sinner. The 22-year-old Italian in fact dismissed Novak Djokovic in the semi-final, while the Serbian remained on 33 consecutive victories in Melbourne. An XXL performance from Jannik Sinner, which opens the doors to his first Grand Slam final.
