 Yannick's vs. Yury Lahechka is the first quarter final for the men's Indian Wales for 2024. And both of our different roads to get to this stage. Lahechka started the tournament as the 32nd seed, and we get a buy in the first round. In the second round he take on the wild card Nakashima. And after dropping the first set, would fight back to win 3-6, 6-3, 6-4. Third round he take on the number 5 seed Rublev, who had just taken out Andy Murray in the previous round. There's no problem for Lahechka getting to his straights, 6-4, 6-4. In the fourth round he take on the number 11 seed City Pass, who had just demolished Tiafo in the previous round. But again, no problem for Lahechka getting through in straights, 6-2, 6-4, to advance to the quarter final. Sinner into the tournament as the number 3 seed, and we get a buy in the first round. In the second round he take on Kokonakis, there's no problem getting through in straights. 6-3, 6-love. Third round he take on the number 25 seed Strouf, who had just battled through Chorich, saving max points in the previous round. There's no problem for Sinner getting through in straights at 6-3, 6-4. In the fourth round he take on Shelton, who had had two tough battles to get to this stage. And after a close first set, Sinner got through in straights, 7-6, 6-1, to advance to the quarter final. These two have actually never faced off before, which is kind of interesting, because they have, you know, been around the same age, they're both 22 years old, they've been around the tour for a while. They did actually play in a challenger match way back when we're Sinner got the win, but that wasn't an official ATP match, it's been so long since they have faced off, and also that was on clay. If Lahechka's gonna win this one, he needs to be super aggressive, and he just can't hold back. He did that against City Pass successfully, he did that against Rublev successfully, but Sinner is a different breed at the moment, also he's a Grand Slam champion, so a totally different level of player to what he's played previously in this tournament. So he's got to go after it Lahechka, come to the net and really put the pressure on Sinner. Sinner's gonna win this one, he needs to be a little cleaner than he was against Shelton. Against Shelton he was a little bit messy, maybe it's because of the wind and the conditions were a little bit brutal, but he's got to be clean, and he's just got to push Lahechka around. He knows that he can outlast Lahechka if he goes the distance, if it does go the distance in this one. Very fun matchup, great to see Lahechka getting his shot at Yannick Sinner, he's been so good this week, but I've got to go with Sinner and Straight Sets. How do you not pick Sinner at the moment? Unless he plays one of the guys at the very top of the tree, how do you pick against him? It's so hard just to even get a challenger against Sinner at the moment, and that includes some of those big guys. So I'm gonna go Sinner and Straight Sets, but let me know down in the comments below who do you think's making the semis.
