Those words concerning Jannik Sinner are nothing short of chilling. It is yet another confirmation of the great growth of the Italian champion
Jannik Sinner, great protagonist of tennis news even when he isn’t playing. All fans are worried about his condition. The Italian tennis player left JMedical after treatment for the hip injury that forced him to withdraw from the Internationals. We are now awaiting his decision on the possible participation in Roland Garros, the second Slam of the season starting in just over a week.
Speaking of Roland Garros, Jannik Sinner also spoke recently Francesca Schiavoneformer world number 4 and champion in Paris in 2010 (as well as having reached the final in the following edition of the clay court Slam.
The former Italian champion made some interesting statements about Sinner on the occasion of the “Schiavone team Lab”, a tennis school that will take care of the training and growth of possible new racket talents, just like Jannik.
Sinner, what praise from Francesca Schiavone
In the interview given to Sky Sport, Schiavone joined in the praise for Sinner, extolling his style and approach to the discipline: “Obviously after Panatta there was silence for many years, then there were me, Pennetta, Vinci and Errani. Now there are these young people who are giving us a splendid show. Jannik in particular has a truly commendable approach to tennis. We should all take an example from him in how he approaches matches. Every game has its own story. Whether he plays in Paris, Rome, New York, is always an expression of what you have trained and who you are.”
A clear reference, then, was made for the Rome Internationals: “It is an extraordinary event to say the least and which grows more and more every year. This is demonstrated by the large turnout from the public who are becoming passionate about this sport. A sport that, in fact, is growing in our country above all thanks to Sinner’s efforts“.
Now the hope is that Jannik will be able to emulate Schiavone in Paris. Fourteen years ago, the Italian champion triumphed on Parisian soil, a feat that also awaits Sinner, who, precisely at Roland Garros, could take further great satisfaction by conquering the top of the ATP ranking. To reach it, it is enough for Djokovic not to reach the final, regardless of his result.
