Sinner overcomes injury, Draper to book Open final spot

Top-ranked Jannik Sinner has finished off a 7-5 7-6 (7-3) 6-2 victory over Jack Draper to reach his first final at the US Open — and second at a grand slam tournament his year — after they simultaneously received treatment from trainers on a humid afternoon in New York.

Sinner, a 23-year-old from Italy who was exonerated in a doping case less than a week before the tournament began, needed his left wrist massaged at a changeover after falling during a point he managed to win late in the second set on Friday. During the same break in the action, the 25th-seeded Draper, a 22-year-old from Britain, got medical attention after vomiting twice on the court between points.
