Jannik Sinner shocks Holger Rune with a sensational net shot
[ad_1]
The point of the match was definitely Jannik Sinner. The Italian tennis player had to suffer another atrocious defeat at the Monte-Carlo Rolex Masters 2023. After the tie-break he lost last year against Zverev, which would have earned him passage to the semifinals, this time the Italian came close to accessing the final, running into in the comeback of a determined and never tame Holger Rune for 1-6, 7-5, 7-5.
The Italian can only ‘console’ himself for having probably won the most exciting exchange of the match. The native of San Candido went into the net, also playing a smash; the Dane defended himself with an excellent backhand but the 21-year-old was careful and sent the ball back to the other side of the court with a sensational no-look volley.

At that point Rune tried a forehand winner but the ball ended up on Jannik, who was precise and surgical winning the huge point. Returning to the endline, the 19-year-old shook his head, also angry at himself for not getting the game.
However, the epilogue smiled at the winner of Paris-Bercy 2022, who will thus have the opportunity to put the second Master 1000 of his career on the bulletin board.
After the suspension due to rain, the Dane’s game grew minute by minute, also favored by the increasingly heavy field.
Sinner suffered a lot in his service, with a low prime percentage, and Rune took the opportunity to score a 7-5, 7-5 that he knows is a joke. Now Holger will have to recharge his energies soon to face Sunday’s final in the best possible way: he will face the Russian Andrey Rublev, in a match that also offers sixth place in the ATP world ranking.
