Jannik Sinner powdered potent forehands, issued seven aces and broke Daniil Medvedev's serve four times in a dominant 2024 Miami Open men's singles semifinal victory Friday in Miami Gardens, Fla. The Italian needed just 71 minutes and two sets to dispatch his Russian foe in a rematch of last year's Miami Open final, which Medvedev won in straight sets.

"I am very happy to be back in the finals," Sinner, who is now a three-time Miami Open finalist, told reporters. "Today was a great day for me. Started off very well and solid and I was happy to finish the match." Sinner, ranked No. 3, now has beaten Medvedev five-consecutive times, after dropping his first six career meetings against the No. 4 men's singles player.
