Sinner twist: interviewed by the ATP after winning the New York tournament, the Italian tennis player made a crazy confession
The center of attention this time because of what he managed to pull off at the Us Open: perfect path, victory in the final never in question, and first place in the ATP rankings confirmed for at least another little while. Jannik Sinner is enjoying the moment and interviewed by the official ATP channels made a sensational revelation.
The nicest guy on the tour is, according to Sinner, Hubert Hurkacz. While Gael Monfils has been identified as the funniest tennis player inside the locker room. And then he also reveals who bothers him, obviously referring to the court, among the players who are currently flowers from the top 20 in the world rankings: “Aljaz Bedene, I always had a hard time with him on the court. I’m glad he retired,” he said with a laugh.
Sinner shot, here’s the strongest
Sinner, in the vein of also very funny statements, also revealed how Frances Tiafoe is the one who talks the most on the court and considers Roberto Bautista Agut the most underrated tennis player on the circuit.

And, finally, the last question, the most important one, the one that could not be missed and the one that everyone really expected. Who was, according to Sinner, the best tennis player of all time, the GOAT of the sport. He didn’t back down Jannik, and answered without even thinking about it or spinning around too much: “From my point of view it’s Roger Federer,” he said, truthfully. So he cornered both Rafa Nadal and Novak Djokovic. And who knows what the two tennis players, who are still on the circuit, will think now, listening to this statement that honestly leaves very little room for all commentary.
