Sinner into French Open Semi-Finals with Ruthless Win over Bublik

Sinner Dismantles Bublik to Reach French Open Semi-Finals

Top seed Jannik Sinner stormed into the French Open 2025 semi-finals with a commanding 6-1, 7-5, 6-0 win over Alexander Bublik, ending the Kazakh’s remarkable run in Paris.

The Italian world number one was in imperious form on Court Philippe-Chatrier, needing just 1 hour and 51 minutes to dismiss Bublik and continue his streak of not dropping a set this tournament.

“With Bublik, you never know what’s going to happen. I tried to stay solid and focused,” Sinner said post-match.

This win extends Sinner’s Grand Slam winning streak to 19 matches, following titles at the 2023 US Open and 2024 Australian Open.

He now awaits the winner of the blockbuster clash between Novak Djokovic and Alexander Zverev.

Bublik’s Run Ends After Career-Best Tournament

Despite the loss, Alexander Bublik leaves Paris with pride, having become the first Kazakh player to reach a Grand Slam quarter-final.

His recent turnaround—sparked by a mindset reset during a trip to Las Vegas—saw him defeat top-10 players including Jack Draper, calling that win the “best moment” of his life.

Though unorthodox in both mentality and playing style, Bublik’s flair ran out of fuel against the precision of Sinner.

Match Summary: Ruthless Efficiency by Sinner

• Set 1: Sinner dominated from the first ball, breaking Bublik twice and nearly bageling him before Bublik held serve at 5-0.

• Set 2: More competitive, with Bublik holding until a costly double fault at 5-5 gave Sinner the crucial break.

• Set 3: Sinner surged, needing only 27 minutes to wrap it up with three breaks, ending the match with a nonchalant cross-court forehand winner.

Sinner’s ability to read and counter Bublik’s unpredictable drop shots and forehands marked the difference.
