Media interest in Jannik Sinner has increased exponentially, since he made the last useful overtaking against Novak Djokovic, to take the first position in the world. For the insiders Italian ace is the suspect number one to win the glorious tournament that is played on the courts of the All England Club.
The Italian, a bit out of modesty, a bit for tactic, rejects these predictions that see him favored at Wimbledon: "I dont know. If Novak regains confidence in his body, it will be very difficult to beat.
Alcaraz won here last year. I also have my chances, just like them, of course, but lets see. All these questions will be answered in the next two weeks," he said in an interview with The Times.
Jannik Sinner makes a confession
The most fascinating rivalry that Jannik Sinner has carried out in recent years has been with his almost contemporary Alcaraz. Challenges that have always given rise to spectacular exchanges, emotions that no other match in the world tennis scene can give.
Speaking of his last match, which he lost in the semi-finals to Roland Garros, Jannik confessed: "I cried after losing to him at the Us Open. A little Roland Garros too. There are times when you feel emotions that you dont want to express.
In the locker room, when youre in the car for a transfer, or even in the hotel room when youre alone. But that means you care, it means you want to add a certain level," he explained.
The last two decades have been marked with golden letters in the history of mens tennis with the legacy built by Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic, who rewrote each brand to raise tennis to new heights.
This undeniable influence of the mythical trio of players already bears fruit in tennis players who want to follow in their footsteps, one of them is the current number one in the world, Jannik Sinner, who shares his vision about what the Swiss, the Spanish and the Serbian have generated.
What I can learn from them is how they improved as players by competing with each other. Rafa arrived at a certain point and Roger was struggling to find a way to beat him. Then came Novak... this is what allows tennis players to evolve and level up," Sinner said.
