Jannik Sinner is still missing two victories for the title in Antwerp

The European halls and Jannik Sinner - that fits very well in autumn 2021. After his triumph in Sofia a few days ago, the South Tyrolean is already in the semifinals of the ATP Tour 250 tournament in Antwerp. Sinner won against Arthur Rinderknech from France after 78 minutes of playing time 6: 4 and 6: 2. In the semifinals, Sinner faces Lloyd Harris from South Africa.

In contrast to Sinner, the South African Harris already has three matches in his legs - because only the four top seeded received a bye in round one in Antwerp. Harris, who has not yet won a tournament on the ATP tour, beat Marton Fucsovics 6: 2 and 7: 5 on Friday.

The cast for the second semi-final will not be decided until later in the evening. It could be two young Americans. Because Brandon Nakashima against Diego Schwartzman are just as likely to progress as Jenson Brooksby against Alejandro Davidovich Fokina.
