Alcaraz advances to the semifinals, squaring off against Zverev
Cincinnati Masters 2022: Semifinal Showdowns Unveiled
The semifinals of the Cincinnati Masters 2022 are set, with an intriguing lineup of matches ahead. Among the semifinalists are rising stars like Jannik Sinner and the surprise entrant, Térence Atmane.
Terence Atmane, who has had limited ATP Tour main draw success earlier in 2022, stunned top seeds such as Taylor Fritz and Holger Rune to reach the semifinals, marking a breakout performance [3]. Jannik Sinner, on the other hand, won the 2024 Cincinnati Open, but for 2022, it is noted he was a top-performing player in later years [1][2].
The lowest-ranked winner of the Cincinnati Masters in 2022 was Borna Coric, who was ranked No.152 at the time. His victory indicates he passed the semifinals, implying he was a semifinalist or finalist alongside others like Sinner and Atmane [1].
Unfortunately, exact detailed match scores or all four semifinalists' names and complete previous results for 2022 are not explicitly listed in the available search results. However, it is known that Carlos Alcaraz will face third seed Alexander Zverev, while Atmane and Sinner will square off in the other semifinal [4].
Alcaraz, who has previously lost one set in the Cincinnati tournament (to Damir Dzumhur in his opening match), expressed his satisfaction with maintaining mental strength during the match, despite losing focus in the second set [5]. Zverev, who did not lose a set up to this point, secured his semifinals berth with a 6-2, 6-2 victory over Ben Shelton [6].
In the other semifinal, Sinner, the defending champion of the Cincinnati tournament, will face Atmane. Both players have not lost a set in the tournament so far [7]. The match promises to be a thrilling encounter, with Sinner's experience and Atmane's unexpected run adding to the excitement.
As the tournament progresses, fans and tennis enthusiasts await the outcome of these semifinal matches, with the winners set to compete in the finals. For precise match-by-match prior results and the full list of semifinalists at the 2022 Cincinnati Masters, consulting official ATP archives or detailed 2022 tournament draws would be necessary.
