Sinner gets walkover into QFs, where he has chance for revenge

Jannik Sinner has advanced to the quarter-finals of the Cincinnati Open after Jordan Thompson withdrew from their scheduled third-round match Friday with a rib injury.

The World No. 1 in the PIF ATP Rankings will now get the opportunity to avenge last week's loss to Andrey Rublev in Montreal. The World No. 6 defeated Sinner 6-3, 1-6, 6-2 in the quarter-finals, snapping a three-match losing streak to the Italian.

Sinner leads their Lexus ATP Head2Head series 5-3.

Sinner, who is chasing his first title since winning the ATP 500 in Halle on grass in June, defeated American qualifier Alex Michelsen 6-4, 7-5 in his opening-round match in Cincinnati.

Last week Sinner became the first player to qualify for November's Nitto ATP Finals in Turin.
