The Australian Open quarter-finals are heating up as Jannik Sinner, battling illness, faces Australia's Alex De Minaur. Meanwhile, Iga Swiatek enters her match free of doping appeals. Experienced players Madison Keys and Elina Svitolina also showcase their adaptability in women's top matches.

As much as any top player, Sinner has been able to expose De Minaur’s lack of first-strike weaponry. The Aussie’s strength is his scrambling and counterpunching, but Sinner serves too well, hits too hard, places the ball too precisely for his defense to be effective. De Minaur hasn’t found a way to hurt, rattle, of disrupt him.
