Sinner Suffering: announcement is a blow that throws fans of the world’s number one tennis player into despondency. Here are his words
Jannik Sinner is ready to dive back into the season’s commitments. After a few weeks of vacation, the Italian tennis player wants to resume playing. He will do so first with exhibition matches, then at the Australian Open, the first Slam of 2025. He comes to it as a favorite, of course, not only because of the ranking, which is a signal, but also because of what his form was. But also because he is the title holder.
It will not be easy to repeat. For a variety of reasons. Everyone now has as a goal to win against the world number one. Who, moreover, mentally is not quite so free: we are all waiting, and not only him, for the decision of the Tas in Lausanne on the appeal filed by Wada against the acquittal on the Clostebol case. A situation that has also exposed those who are Jannik’s enemies on the tennis circuit. That said, there is also another factor that could make a difference.
Sinner’s distress: words leave one stunned
In an interview given to the official Australian Open channels and which can be seen in full on the Youtube channel, Sinner spoke about the vacations and the family situation that was certainly not serene this holiday season.
“It is important to spend Christmas with family, but it was difficult after my aunt passed away. She will always be in my heart, she is a special person. It was heavy to lose such an important person, who gave me so much advice and gave me good times. My family is a close family and I like to be with people who trust me in everything. Because of that, it was a strange Christmas.” In short, the family aspect is also one that can make a difference inside an athlete’s life. And Sinner’s state of mind ahead of the first official commitments of the season is not to be underestimated, no doubt. A state of mind that could also affect inside his performance. We obviously hope not.
