Former Wimbledon semi-finalist Roberto Bautista Agut predicted a great future for Jannik Sinner after going down to the Italian teenager for the second straight time in the last few weeks.

The 19-year-old beat Spaniard Bautista Agut 5-7 6-4 6-4 in the Miami Open semi-finals on Friday to become the fourth teenager to reach the title round of the ATP Masters 1000 event after Andre Agassi, Rafa Nadal and Novak Djokovic."He has a great future coming up. He has everything," world number 12 Bautista Agut told reporters."He has a big serve, he's tall, he's big, he moves well, he has very good groundstrokes. Well, mentally he's also great and improving.

Bautista Agut, who reached the last four of the 2019 Wimbledon and also reached a career-high ranking of ninth the same year, also hailed Sinner's composure. Sinner reached his maiden major quarter-final at the 2020 French Open and in February became the youngest since Djokovic in 2006 to win two ATP titles by claiming the Great Ocean Road Open after his Sofia Open triumph at the end of last year.
