Yannick Sinner is still alive at the Australian Openbut the questions about his health and fitness are real. Sinner played Holger Rune under the punishing Australian summer sun in the fourth round, his body barking loudly at him. The sinner was seen shaking his hands during the changeover. He obviously wasn’t feeling well in this match for a while. He was fortunate that Rune, whose career has been hampered by recurring fitness problems, was also not 100 percent fit. Sinner saw a doctor and was able to stabilize in the four-set win, but when you remember Sinner wasn’t feeling well in his Wimbledon quarter-final loss to Danilo Medvedev last year, it’s fair to wonder if Greiner’s body is just that little bit more vulnerable than it could or should be. Sinner’s health, as well as his opponents, could prevent him from successfully defending the Australian Open championship in 2024. It is true that No. 4 seed Taylor Fritz lost, thus opening the draw for Sinner in a potential semi-final match. However, Sinner must get past Australia’s Alex de Minaur in the quarters to benefit from a favorable semi-final draw.

Alex de Minaur reached the quarterfinals at all four major tournaments. Moreover, he has done so in the past four cases. Last year, he reached the quarterfinals of the French Open, then made it to the round of 16 at Wimbledon, the US Open, and now Melbourne. He plays good ball and gets a lot out of his game. De Minaur, being Australian, will be supported by the home crowd Down Under. If he is to reach his first major semi-final, he will surely get plenty of encouragement from the home crowd which could turn this match into a Davis Cup away game for Sinner.

Most tennis analysts would say that Alex de Minaur lacks the elite weapons to defeat Sinner, but if the Italian is not fully fit, de Minaur can win with his best weapon: his speed. De Minaur is quick and athletic, and he won’t burn out. Sinner will have to hit an extra ball to beat him. If Sinner’s body can’t take it, de Minaur has a chance to outlive him.
