US Open, Jannik Sinner’s words. And Diego Nargiso gets off balance
After the four-set victory over an extra-luxury Stan Wawrinka here are Jannik Sinner’s paoles in the press conference after the match that gave him access to the round of 16 of the US Open.
"È it was a very difficult match and è always very difficult to play against him. Then let’s say that both he and I know each other better and that è important, this time I felt it was different than the other times. Also, the wind created problems for me, but in the end I think I was able to handle it well. He did well on serve and with his backhand, also he did not feel the fatigue and played well. Forò I was aware that he in the previous matches worked a lot and could go down a bit; I in the end just thought about myself".
"The singer Seal? We have known each other for two years and it è not the first time he came here, è amazing and è a nice person to be with, really very nice. Basically è it è nice to share moments other than tennis with people like that, we don’t just talk about tennis but more. The service? Today I felt it well and in the important moments I did even better. I am aware that I can improve and that I have to raise my level from this point of view. Especially on the second I had some problems, it was slow and I didn't like the way it was going. Then every match has its own story, let’s see how it will go next time. Sascha (Zverev, his next opponent, ed.) is serving very well, è strong physically and I know that è tough. It è not easy then because I havené t faced him for a long time”.
But in the studios of Supertennis, which is exclusively broadcasting the New York Slam, è came a statement from Diego Nargiso, who è unbalanced himself by comparing the 22-year-old from Alto Adige even to Novak Djokovic: “In Sinner I really see Djokovic again. For the balance on the court, the way he always responds in the middle, the inside-in forehand. He is improving day by day, kudos to his staff. I think already today he is very close to the Serb, but he will have a way to get even closer“.
