Turin Semifinals: Sinner Draws De Minaur as Alcaraz Locks In Year-End No. 1

Sinner enters with dominant indoor form, a 12-0 record over De Minaur, a semifinal that precedes his early-2026 push for No. 1.

Overview

  • Sinner vs. De Minaur is scheduled in Turin for 14:30 CET, live on Sky Sport in Italy and free-to-air on Rai 2 with streaming on RaiPlay.
  • Carlos Alcaraz has been formally crowned ATP year-end No. 1 for 2025 and faces Felix Auger-Aliassime in the evening semifinal not before 20:30 CET.
  • Sinner’s serving has surged at the Finals, including 75% first serves, 81% points won on first delivery, and 11 aces in his straight-sets win over Ben Shelton.
  • The Italian leads De Minaur 12-0 in their head-to-head, including 7-0 indoors, while the Australian reached the semis on games won and admitted a brief crisis of confidence earlier in the week.
  • This season Alcaraz captured eight titles and dominated clay, Sinner won five including the Australian Open and Wimbledon, and reporting indicates Sinner plans a February–April 2026 bid to reclaim No. 1 as ranking windows open.
