Adriano Panatta blows everyone away on rivalry between Jannik Sinner and Novak Djokovic
Adriano Panatta displaces all
After the words of praise towards Jannik Sinner already spent during the live TV broadcasts of the Davis Cup, Adriano Panatta goes even further and, again at the microphones of the 'Rai', he pushes himself into a rather strong prediction: according to the Italian tennis legend, the South Tyrolean could be the "responsible", in the not too distant future, for the retirement of Novak Djokovic.
"In my opinion, if Sinner were to beat him two or three more times in 2024, he would become Djokovic's nightmare, leading him to quit,” Panatta said.
History teaches and usually repeats itself: Borg quit with the arrival of McEnroe, McEnroe è retired when Becker" arrived.
The one just completed by Jannik Sinner è was a splendid season, marked by four tournaments won in singles (ATP 250 Montpellier, Masters 1000 Toronto, ATP 500 Beijing and ATP 500 Vienna), fourth place in the world ranking at the end of the season as well asé by brilliant results such as reaching the very final at the ATP Finals in Turin (defeated by Djokovic himself) and, of course, by the feat in the Davis Cup in which he è was practically perfect both in singles and, when needed, in doubles.
