Jannik Sinner It’s in Paris. The first step towards participation in the Roland Garros it has been done. The 22-year-old Italian number 2 in the world played his last match on April 30th during the round of 16 of the Masters 1000 in Madrid. After the victory against Khachanov, Sinner withdrew from the match against Auger-Aliassime due to problems with his right hip and subsequently missed the Italian Internazionali for the same reason.
Recovery in Turin
The South Tyrolean received treatment in Turin at the Juventus medical center and last weekend picked up the racket again training in Monte Carlo. The latest tests have clarified that the hip problem is over, the doctors gave the green light and yesterday Sinner reached Paris, with him the coaches Simone Vagnozzi and Darren Cahill and the athletic trainer Umberto Ferrara.
Training and the draw
Sinner has not yet completely resolved his reservations about his participation in the second Slam of the year. He wants to get back on the pitch but is also aware that his physical condition is what it is after more than three weeks without matches. Paris is one of the key events of the season, but Jannik doesn’t want to take any risks with other important events ahead such as Wimbledon and the Olympics. The next few hours will be decisive. The Italian trained on Philippe-Chatrier (the central court) with the Japanese Nishikori, a test that could already be indicative on the choice to play in Paris or not. The draw is scheduled for Thursday at 2pm, while Sinner is expected at a press conference on Friday. The tournament starts on Sunday 26th.
