Australian Open champion Sinner had won 16 straight matches to begin the year 바카라 and 19 in all stretching back to last season 바카라 but the number three seed had no answer to the Spaniard after winning the first set.

Defending Indian Wells champion Alcaraz was broken twice after a three-hour rain delay as Sinner raced to a 6-1 first set victory.

But having faced deuce on his opening service game of the second set, the Spaniard grabbed the initiative with an early break.

He saved break points in successive games and served out to level the match. Alcaraz, who would have surrendered the world number two spot to Sinner with a defeat, again broke early in the deciding set.

He dropped just three points on his serve, rattling off five straight games to lead 5-1, clinching victory on his third match point in just over two hours.

바카라I stayed strong mentally,바카라 said Alcaraz. 바카라I think that바카라s a really important part in this game. You have to be strong mentally if you want to overcome these kind of matches, a set down against someone that바카라s playing an unbelievable game.

바카라I changed my style a little bit, I changed my game a little bit and I think it worked very well. I바카라m really happy to beat Jannik and be in the final again.바카라
