Sinner, an unforgivable mistake undermined the final result. Impossible not to notice: it’s there for all to see.
It is essential that the Association of tennis players constantly update the biographies of players on the circuit. Inside there is all the information about their performances: data, statistics, news, results of previous comparisons, and you name it. They are very useful tools, as such, for those who are looking for “fresh” news regarding their careers.
Just in the past few hours, the Atp has been refreshing the official tour website. Graphically, nothing has changed, but it was well thought out to overhaul all the photographs included to accompany the profiles of individual players. The web space dedicated to the major circuit gave itself a change of look in short, but someone, very attentive to details, soon realized that the accounts did not add up. That something just didn’t add up. And that something had to do precisely with our quintessential holder, namely Jannik Sinner.
The biography of the fourth best tennis player in the world has also undergone a minor revision. The career data is being updated systematically, which is why it has been possible for some time now to know exactly how much the native of Innichen has won and when, exactly, he reached the fourth place in the Atp ranking. So far, everything has gone smoothly. No hiccups, no mistakes.
Sinner, backhand mission impossible
The figure for the money Jannik has earned so far might have distracted us, but someone, more observant than others, noticed something very strange instead.
According to new photos on the ATP website, Sinner may be having some trouble playing the two-handed backhand.

In the new photograph accompanying statistics and data, Sinner is wearing his victory jersey. The one he took the court in at the Australian Open, the same one he had on the day he finally lifted the Melbourne cup to the sky. He holds his racquet with his right arm, keeping it resting on his shoulders, but his left arm is missing.
Already, as a result of an obviously bad edit or contouring, the sleeve of his signature Nike jersey was left curiously “empty.” Of course, jokes were wasted as soon as someone on social media pointed out the epic fail. And indeed, just like that, one might have some trouble with the two-handed backhand…
