Jannik Sinner admits, “I didn’t sleep at Wimbledon.”

Jannik Sinner Speaks

On the eve of his debut at the Us Open, Jannik Sinner gave a lengthy interview to ESPN microphones, in which he è returned to the Clostebol case, a substance to which he è tested positive: "I did not have special treatment. The process è was very long. I had to wait a long time without knowing what was going to happen. It was a very hard time, full of doubts. È it was hard to play in this situation, but inside I knew that I had done nothing wrong".

" I have borne a great burden, because", when you know that the result is coming, you still do not know what the outcome of the proceedings will be," added the South Tyrolean. Now I am happy that it is all over, a great weight has been lifted. I hope no other player has to experience a situation like this and I also hope that people understand why I was allowed to continue playing without sanctions. I think I explained it, I hope everyone can understand and we can turn the page".

"This situation had a major impact on me, because I was sick and I didn’t have much energy on the court,” the world number one later admitted. I think you saw it for example at Wimbledon, I had some sleepless nights having that fixed thought. There were some physical problems maybe due to that. The first hiccup è came because of the hip in Monte Carlo, exactly when I got the news of the positivity. I felt different on the court, I was not happy, I was not myself on the court. Now però I hope I can turn the page. I’m not saying I willò right away, because ité will take some’ time, but I just want to get back to being happy on the court to enjoy and share great moments with the public".

"Again I have low expectations for everything I am going through, but I still try to give my best trying to fight and run on every ball. However, I have to accept these kinds of things that I hope can make me grow from here on and get back to competing in a let’s say normal way. The physical part now is not è at the top and I also need some time to regain the right feelings on these courts. Already; Tuesday will be a tough match, so let’s see. Every win è good. Obviously we are aiming for a good result here but we take it; more lightly, with less pressure" Sinner commented ahead of the American Slam.
