Holger Rune didn't have anything against Jannik Sinner taking a medical timeout but noted that a lengthy break ruined his rhythm. After the world No. 1 started to physically struggle late in the second set of their Australian Open round-of-16 match - the Italian's hands were shaking and his movement was impacted - the Dane won that set and also had the upper hand early in the third set.

First came the medical timeouts, one each for Jannik Sinner and Holger Rune with the temperature above 90 degrees Fahrenheit (32 Celsius) at the Australian Open. Then came the bizarre sight of a 20-minute delay because the net at Rod Laver Arena detached from the court after being hit by a big Sinner serve.

The screw holding the net in place at the Australian Open’s main stadium has been jarred loose during defending champion Jannik Sinner’s fourth-round match against Holger Rune
