After winning the match, Sinner expressed, "I am happy how I handled it. I was a break up in the second and he broke me back. I tried to stay strong mentally so I am very happy about today's performance and obviously to be in another final," as per BBC Sports.

He added, "It was not easy to [reach] the final here, so I'm very happy. I was trying to play some good tennis, trying to serve very well. The first set was very physical, so I'm happy that I won in two sets today."

Sinner is aiming to win his fourth tittle of the year after already winning the Australian Open, Wimbledon and China Open.

The player will next face either his fellow Italian Lorenzo Musetti or Alexander Zverev on Sunday, October 26.
