Sinner beat Nicolas Jarry (7-6, 7-6, 6-1) in the first round of the Australian Open. In the match against the Chilean, Yannick served seven aces, converted two break points and did not lose a single game on his serve. For the Italian, it should be noted, this was the first match of the new season.
Professional qualities
Sinner is one of the brightest representatives of the new generation of tennis players, whose game is ideally adapted to fast surfaces. The Italian demonstrates a classic hard court style: a powerful and reliable serve, which provides comfortable positions in rallies, and aggressive shots from both sides. Sinner knows how to work flawlessly as the first number, controlling rallies with the help of his perfect forehand. He also feels great in the counterattack, instantly switching from defense to attack. His two-handed backhand with strong topspin is capable of literally piercing opponents.
Current indicators in the tour
Sinner leads the world rankings. Last season, the Italian added eight titles to his trophy cabinet, winning tournaments in Rotterdam, Miami, Halle, Cincinnati and Shanghai. In addition, Yannick won the Australian Open, the US Open and the Final Tournament.

Current form
Schoolkate beat Taro Daniel (6-7, 7-6, 6-1, 6-4) in the first round of the Australian Open. Tristan hit 23 aces, converted five break points and lost two games on his serve during the match against the Japanese. The Australian has two wins and two losses on open hard courts this season.
Professional qualities
Schoolkate follows the classic Australian approach to the game, focusing on the first serve and then going to the net. This style requires impeccable precision in key components: the serve and forehand. However, in Tristan’s performance, they work inconsistently, which does not allow him to rise above the Challenger level. If the first serve goes, the Australian can successfully finish the rally in three or four strokes. But the slightest failure in the game makes him vulnerable, especially in long rallies on the baseline, where his skills are clearly not enough to compete with top opponents.
Current indicators in the tour
Schoolkate is ranked 173rd in the world. The 23-year-old Australian has won three titles in his career. Last season, Tristan won the Guangzhou Challenger, which was held on an outdoor hard court.
