Jannik Sinner continued his mastery over Alex de Minaur on Saturday with a straight-sets win to reach the ATP Finals championship match for the third year in a row.
Sinner broke late in the first set and then pulled away from De Minaur to complete a 7-5, 6-2 win – his 13th in as many meetings with the Australian.
The Italian world number two has yet to drop a service game en route to the final.
He will try to defend his title on Sunday against top-ranked Carlos Alcaraz or Felix Auger-Aliassime.
Sinner said: “It is the last event of the year and it is great to finish in this way.
“It was a very tough match, especially at the beginning of the first set. I felt like he was serving great, very precise.

“In the second set, I broke very early and then my level rose. I tried to be a bit more aggressive and it worked well but it was a tough match.”
Sinner has won his last 18 sets played in Turin, where he beat Taylor Fritz in last year’s final.
The four-time Grand Slam champion is on a 30-match winning streak on indoor hard courts.
If Sinner faces Alcaraz in the final, it will be their sixth meeting of the season. Alcaraz has won four of the five previous matches, triumphing in the French Open and US Open finals.
