“Without Sinner”: Jannik destroyed. Here came a hard hit for the blue tennis player to swallow. Of course, not everyone feels the same way
Jannik Sinner continues to make waves. The Italian tennis player, now in Canada where he will play a Masters 1000 before the Us Open, has had to send a lot already after giving up on the Olympics.
Simple fans, journalists, sports people have put him in the crosshairs for that tonsillitis that did not allow him to be present in Paris. Perhaps the situation-but everyone has an idea-could also have been handled better. But it is water under the bridge now, but not for everyone. Especially for some fans who see in everything posted on social media a clear reference to Sinner’s absence. Evidently, however, this is not the case. But let’s take a look together at what happened.
Sinner still in the crosshairs of criticism
Jasmine Paolini – who together with Sara Errani is in the doubles final – posted a photo on their social profiles together with their colleague and together with Musetti, who was eliminated in the semifinals by Djokovic in two sets. They are the Italian tennis players who have held high the Italian flag during these games. They are the ones who will bring back to Italy – certainly the two azzurre – a medal after 100 years of absence in tennis.
Sorry and happy and without any reference-as mentioned before-to Sinner, someone, however, wanted to reiterate the concept: “Everything without Sinner.” In short, it didn’t really go down well with the Italian’s decision not to be present at the Paris Olympic Games by the world number one who wants to remain at the top of the Atp rankings in the coming months. It has recently been over 8 weeks since he took the top spot in this ranking, the most important on the circuit, and he obviously has no intention of losing it. Finally, as we know, the Olympic Games do not give points. And maybe that could also have weighed in the choice. This is not a sure thing, merely an assumption-probably even a wrong one-about what happened. The truth, however, is one: the controversies continue and are never over.
