Frances Tiafoe shines at home.

Having qualified for his first career Masters 1000 final, the American will now face Jannik Sinner in the final.

Although the world number 1 is still suffering from a hip problem, the 26-year-old is expecting a tough match.

In a statement relayed by Punto de Break, he said: "He's lost around five matches this year. Whoever his opponent is, he'll always be the favorite. You have to take your hat off to him for what he's doing this season".
