Miami Open: Italian teenager Jannick Sinner reaches maiden ATP Masters 1000 decider

Italian teenager Jannick Sinner reached his first ATP Masters 1000 final with a stunning victory at the Miami Open.

The 19-year-old world number 31 recovered from a break down in the final set to beat Spanish seventh seed Roberto Bautista Agut 5-7 6-4 6-4.

Sinner will face either Russian fourth seed Andrey Rublev or Hubert Hurkacz of Poland in Sunday's final.

"It sounds incredible to reach the final. I am very happy," said the French Open quarter-finalist.

"At the beginning, we were both a bit tight but it was windy today so I just tried to serve better, move him a bit more and mix it up - that was the key.
