Darren Cahill-Jannik Sinner: cringe in press conference

After his feat against Novak Djokovic in the Australian Open semifinals, Jannik Sinner also found time to joke with his coach, Darren Cahill. During the press conference, in fact, the Australian coach had to answer not only questions from the journalists in the room, but also a question from the South Tyrolean tennis player.

"How è to coach Jannik?" asked the blue. "&It’s a lousy job, we’re not paid enough. That guy is always giving us a hard time, he’s always taking our money in card games and he has a lot of fun so" replied Cahill, triggering laughter from everyone in the press room.

He later addressed words of praise to his student: "He has work ethic, willingness to learn, desire, goal and a fantastic tennis IQ. Jannik è all this and also has a great sense of humor. He always shows it on the court in post-match interviews. È a delightful guy who loves to be with company and enjoys spending time with his team".
