Diego Nargiso explains the'last step Jannik Sinner is missing
Former Italian tennis player Diego Nargiso at the microphones of Oasport spoke about Jannik Sinner, who has just returned from a memorable trip to Asia: "There have been steps forward, as he beat Alcaraz and Medvedev in succession, in matches in which he raised the bar even higher’
The South Tyrolean still lacks the continuity of the greats: "Surely Sinner has as his most important gap from those ahead of him in the rankings the continuity of performance at a high level, that is, being able to replicate his highest status consistently. However, in this 2023, è managed to do so several times otherwise he would not have the ranking he has".
To get to the Slam level, Sinner needs one last step according to Nargiso: "The step he has to do è the physical one becauseé the level of play he has and he has shown it. An aspect, however, already much improved becauseé there are the ATP ranking and the Race to certify it".
On the knockout with Shelton: "He's a very interesting profile, which è already a reality: he made quarters at the Australian Open and semifinals in New York this year. We are certainly not talking about a novice, who on concrete in 2023 has proven to be a top player in ‘good’ weeks, and I believe he can still improve as well as Sinner".
