Third consecutive victory for Jannik Sinner at the US Open 2024, leaving behind the most mentally challenging matches to save. Everything from now on will have to be settled by the tennis aspect, as the most dangerous opponents in the draw begin to appear on the other side of the net. Tommy Paul will be the next test in the Italian's path, although before that, he had to go through a press conference to analyze the crazy situation that has unfolded in Flushing Meadows after the eliminations of his two main rivals.

Alcaraz and Djokovic out of the tournament

"This shows that sports are unpredictable. Every time you lower your level a bit, whether it's mental, physical, or in tennis, it ultimately has an impact on the result. The two players they lost to played incredible tennis, so these things happen. I just focus on my part, concentrate on the things I have to do, the things I have been doing in this period of time. We'll see what happens next."

Tommy Paul in the fourth round

"It will be a great challenge; he is a great player and has improved a lot recently, so it is an important challenge. He has a lot of tennis, especially when competing here in the United States, so it will surely be a tough match for me. I hope to be ready to compete in the best possible way; I am just looking forward to it. These matches are always very exciting to play, so I am happy to be back in one of them; we will see what happens."

The role of Arthur Ashe in his match with O'Connell

"I remember my first impressions of this court; it is a little different from the others, the stadium is huge. Today, I felt that I have raised my level in the last two matches; I felt better on the court, trying to play tactically in the right way. I executed everything in a positive way; it showed in the result afterward. Chris is a dangerous player; when he serves well, it is difficult to break him, so I tried to move him a bit to one side and then be unpredictable. I am happy with how I played today; every opponent here is different, so we will see what comes in the next round. I hope to maintain this positive mindset."

The demands of being World No. 1

"If you want to stay where you are, you always have to improve. If you want to improve your ranking and the way you play, you always have to get better. There are players who constantly push you to the limit; that is where real improvement happens. That is the best part of the process we have to go through; at least that is what my team and I try to do. There are some things you agree with and some you don't, but it is a great journey to undertake, it means that as a player, I really care about improving and so do your coaches, even if you often hear things you don't want to hear. It is good for players to have different opponents who push you to the limit."

The three aspects he has improved the most in 2024

"I have significantly improved my movement, as well as the physical aspect. Also, the serve, I feel that I have improved, especially the second serve. I would say those are the three things I have improved the most. At least that's what Darren always tells me, because he understands the position I am in and the issues that come with the whole process; he always wants me to keep working. In the end, it is a mix of many things, not just a few. I get along very well with Darren and Simone; they are two different coaches who work very well together, have great mutual respect, and it's great to see. It is also difficult to find two coaches so different who complement each other so well; I am very lucky to have this team."
