The Spaniard has owned their rivalry recently, but this version of the world No. 1 could prove to be too good.

ATP World No. 1 Jannik Sinner has pulled out of the Bitpanda Hamburg Open. On Friday, Sinner defeated Tommy Paul to advance to the final of the Italian Open (Internazionali BNL d'Italia).

However, it was not just the quality of Jannik Sinner that told on the night. In fact, the Italian himself has even admitted that it was a mistake made by Paul that let him back into the match.
