Sinner has looked in excellent form since a surprise wobble in the opening round as he was taken all the way in a five-set comeback win by Miomir Kecmanovic, defeating Jan-Lennard Struff in the quarter-finals and not dropping a further set in victories over Nuno Borges, Jenson Brooksby and Shintaro Mochizuki. He may well be fresher than Djokovic, who beat third seed Felix Auger-Aliassime in a draining epic on Tuesday having seen off Roman Safiullin, Arthur Rinderknech, Stefanos Tsitsipas and Wu Yibing.
