Mouratoglou pushes up Jannik Sinner

Renowned French coach Patrick Mouratoglou posted a video on his social channels analyzing what Jannik Sinner would need: “If you look at Jannik’s game, it’s pretty complete. I don’t see many weaknesses. Of course there is room for improvement in some shots, but I think the biggest improvement he can make is the way he handles big matches and scoring. To me, his tennis is that of a guy who is definitely in the top 10 or maybe even in the top 5. Or maybe even better.”

Despite having achieved excellent results in skiing since childhood, at the age of 13 Jannik decided to devote himself exclusively to tennis, moving to Bordighera, at the court of Riccardo Piatti. It was a choice that would prove successful, as Sinner is the youngest Italian tennis player ever to enter the top 100 (October 2019) and to win an Atp title in the Open era (Sofia 2020). In addition, along with Matteo Berrettini, Jannik is the only Italian tennis player to have reached at least the round of 16 in all four Slams. For him, 2022 was the breakthrough year: he left Piatti to rely on Vagnozzi.
