Sinner brushes past Zverev to reach Monte Carlo finalJannik Sinner beat Alexander Zverev 6-1, 6-4 to reach the final of the Monte Carlo MastersMONTE CARLO (PRINCIPALITY OF MONACO) - World No.2 Jannik Sinner eased his way into the final of the Monte Carlo Masters for the first time with a clinical 6-1, 6-4 semi-final win over Alexander Zverev on Saturday. The Italian becomes the first player to reach all three finals of the season's first three Masters 1000 events since Novak Djokovic in 2015. Sinner will face either world No.1 and defending champion Carlos Alcaraz or local boy Valentin Vacherot, ranked 23 in the world, who meet later on Saturday. Extremely aggressive from the start, Sinner blew the German away in the opening set, breaking him three times and wrapping it up in 34 minutes. He finally folded after 1hr 22min on another blistering forehand from Sinner, who has lost only one set in his last 21 matches at Masters 1000 events.
