Sinner new number one in the world: this time we are there. Here’s the combination that could propel the Italian tennis player into legend as early as the next few months
Novak Djokovic’s premature elimination from the Internazionali di Roma opens up scenarios that were not conceivable at the beginning of this tournament. And it opens up scenarios that could bring in legend Jannik Sinner, despite the fact that the Italian is injured and, more importantly, does not yet have an exact return date.
Sinner is working, as we know, in Turin: precisely at the J|Medical, owned by Juventus, where in recent months Matteo Berrettini has also passed through. The Australian Open winner is trying to recover from the hip injury that knocked him out in Madrid and also caused him to miss the tournament being held in Italy’s capital. Not only that, it also jeopardizes his participation in Roland Garros. Let’s be clear, it’s not a good situation, but nevertheless, according to the X quindicizero profile, Jannik in the coming months could become, resoundingly, the number one tennis player in the world. Here’s how.
Sinner in front of everything, that’s how
The calculation is soon done and, seeing the moment the mentioned tennis players are experiencing, it is not utopian as a thing: “If Novak Djokovic does not reach the final at Roland Garros, and if Daniil Medvedev does not win both Roland Garros and Rome, Jannik Sinner will be the new world number one at the end of the French Open, even in case he does not participate.” A combination that could fit, especially going by the physical condition of Nole, who was thrown out of Rome on Sunday and now seems to be in that age-related downward phase. The Serb has always been a monster, now paying for the un-freshness of his ID card.
In short, we are really there, and the feeling is that all this may become a reality. A Sinner who then could become the strongest in the world and, as said, enter the legend of the sport. He already is, let’s make that clear. To be ahead of everyone in the World rankings, though, has something sensational about it. And we all really hope so.
