Sharjah 24 – AFP: Italy’s Jannik Sinner advanced to the round of 16 at Roland Garros with a commanding win over Czech player Jiri Lehecka. The world No. 1 defeated the 34th-ranked Lehecka in straight sets: 6-0, 6-1, 6-2, completing the match in just 1 hour and 34 minutes on Court Suzanne Lenglen.

Flawless performance

Wearing a green shirt and exuding focus, the 23-year-old Italian showed no mercy, especially in the first set, which he claimed in just 25 minutes. Sinner allowed Lehecka only three games across the remaining two sets, continuing his flawless run in the tournament.

Eyes on Djokovic and Zverev

Sinner, who returned recently from a three-month doping suspension, has not dropped a set so far in the tournament. He now awaits potential matchups with fellow title contenders Novak Djokovic and Alexander Zverev as the competition heats up in the second Grand Slam of the year.
