MANILA, Philippines — Jannik Sinner will have to wait to complete his passage to the Italian Open final after his gripping Last 4 clash with Daniil Medvedev was interrupted by rain on Friday.

Hunting a 33rd straight win in the ATP’s top-ranked tournaments, Sinner was leading 6-2, 5-7, 4-2 when organizers called a halt to play following the second downpour of the day.

It was decided that the match would restart at 3 p.m. on Saturday (1300GMT), two hours before the scheduled start of the women’s final between Coco Gauff and Elina Svitolina.
