Jannik Sinner reached his second semi-final in as many weeks on Friday as he tamed Stan Wawrinka 6-1. 6-3 at the ATP Rotterdam event.

Sinner got the job done on his third match point after Wawrinka saved the first two but sent a return long over the baseline.
The Italian ended with 11 winners and 19 unforced errors while his opponent had a massive 29 miscues.
Victory was the sixth in a row for Sinner, who put out Rotterdam top seed Stefanos Tsitsipas in the second round.
