"NEW YORK -- Jannik Sinner dominated the only player other than Carlos Alcaraz who has defeated him this season, routing Alexander Bublik 6-1, 6-1, 6-1 on Monday night to return to the US Open quarterfinals. The top-seeded Sinner's victory took just 1 hour, 21 minutes, the second-shortest completed match in the tournament. A first-round victory for Tomas Machac was a minute shorter. Sinner lost to Bublik in June in Halle, Germany, in a warmup tournament before Wimbledon, but that was played on a grass court."
"Sinner, who also won the past two Australian Open titles, extended his win streak at the hard-court Grand Slams to 25 matches, tying John McEnroe for the fifth-longest streak by any man all time. Sinner's three dropped games are the fewest in a second-week match at Flushing Meadows since the semifinals in 2015, when Novak Djokovic defeated Marin Cilic 6-0, 6-1, 6-2. It tied the fewest games lost in Sinner's major career (6-0, 6-1, 6-2 vs. Jiri Lehecka in the 2025 French Open third round)."
Jannik Sinner defeated Alexander Bublik 6-1, 6-1, 6-1 to reach the US Open quarterfinals in 1 hour 21 minutes. Sinner broke Bublik eight times and won 86-46 in points while Bublik committed 13 double-faults. The victory extended Sinner's hard-court Grand Slam win streak to 25 matches, tying John McEnroe for the fifth-longest men's streak. Sinner's three dropped games were the fewest in a second-week Flushing Meadows match since 2015 and tied the fewest lost in his major career. Sinner will face Lorenzo Musetti next. Bublik entered the match with an 11-match ATP-leading winning streak and three titles.
