The semi-final match of Canadian Open 2023 between Tommy Paul and Jannik Sinner will take place on August 13.
For the second consecutive year, Tommy Paul has ousted Carlos Alcaraz at the Canada Masters, a feat even more impressive this time due to Paul’s recent mediocre form and Alcaraz’s strong performance. Despite a decline during the clay season, Paul has excelled on hardcourts this year, with notable achievements like reaching the Australian Open semifinals and finishing as Acapulco runner-up, elevating his ranking to world #14. His upcoming semifinal appearance at the Masters level is a first, potentially making him the second American to reach consecutive Toronto Masters finals after Reilly Opelka’s upset of Stefanos Tsitsipas in 2021.
Benefiting from straightforward earlier rounds, including a walkover and first-round bye, provided Jannik Sinner vital energy for his Toronto Masters quarterfinal win over Gael Monfils. Notably, his matches this week have consistently ended with scores of 6-4 or 6-3. Sinner’s previous Masters title contenders, like Medvedev, Alcaraz, and Rune, are already out, granting him more rest than other participants. As the highest-ranked player remaining, he has a chance to make up for the year’s initial setbacks. Sinner faced memorable semifinals in 2023, including defeats to Alcaraz and Rune, but he’s maintained consistent results. Despite recurring issues leading to retirements, he reached Wimbledon semifinals and impressively won Umag last year.
