Overview
- Jannik Sinner beat Arthur Fils 6-2, 6-4 on Friday to reach the Mutua Madrid Open final.
- Sinner’s Masters 1000 winning streak rose to 27 matches, setting up a shot at an unprecedented fifth title in a row.
- The world No. 1 did not face a break point as Fils struggled to land first serves early and never created a look on Sinner’s delivery.
- Semi run caps Fils’s surge since returning from a long back injury, with a Barcelona crown and nine straight clay wins that should lift him back into the Top 20 as soon as Monday.
- Sinner will face the winner of Alexander Zverev vs. Alexander Blockx in a Masters 1000 final, the top ATP tier below the four Grand Slams that often shapes form for Roland‑Garros in three weeks.
