Sinner crushes De Minaur to reach Australian Open semi-finals
Defending champion Jannik Sinner shattered home hopes Wednesday by crushing Alex de Minaur in a straight-sets rout to set up an Australian Open semi-final against Ben Shelton.
The Italian world number one showed no signs of the illness that hampered him in his last match to emphatically fly past the eighth seed 6-3, 6-2, 6-1 on Rod Laver Arena.
