Jannik Sinner moved into the quarterfinals at Wimbledon after defeating Shintaro Mochizuki in straight sets, 6-3, 7-6, 6-3. He served 15 aces and saved all five break points he faced during the match.
This was his third straight-set victory this week after surviving a grueling five-set encounter against Miomir Kecmanovic in the opening round, showing that he is steadily raising his level after fitness concerns following his disappointing early-round exit at Roland Garros.
Before that shock defeat in Paris, the Italian had been on an incredible run, winning five consecutive Masters titles and carrying a 30-match winning streak.
This is his fifth consecutive quarterfinal at Wimbledon. He has won two of his previous four quarterfinals here, converting his most recent appearance into the title last year.
Sinner heads into this clash with a 9-5 career record in Grand Slam quarterfinals and has won nine of his last 10 matches at this stage, including a six-match winning streak. His most recent defeat in a Grand Slam quarterfinal came here at Wimbledon against Daniil Medvedev in 2024.
