Jannik Sinner, but what booing: how much heat in New York.
Jannik Sinner, but what booing: how much heat in New York
The New York crowd fired up Jannik Sinner on the first day of practice at Arthur Ashe court ahead of the start of the US Open. The Italian tennis player, in the spotlight for the case that broke out in recent days, è trained together with Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov: for him no whistles and no protests, but only applause from the audience present.
The U.S. fans seem to have sided with him: Sinner è was greeted by great warmth as he entered the court, and signed several autographs before starting practice.
The Blue, who appeared calm, è was followed by coaches Darren Cahill and Simone Vagnozzi. Sinner will return to practice again at the Arthur Ashe on Friday, with friend Hubert Hurkacz.
Sinner comes to Flushing Meadows among the favorites for the final victory: he will debut in the first round against Mackenzie McDonald. The first goal è to improve on last season’s results, when he stopped in the round of 16 against Zverev: the South Tyrolean could meet Daniil Medvedev in the quarters and Carlos Alcaraz in the semifinals, while a possible match against Novak Djokovic may not take place until the last act of the Slam.
