Jannik Sinner explains how he dealt with the Clostebol case

With one week to go before the Australian Open, Jannik Sinner, defending champion and world number one, gave an interview to the organizers of the Australian Slam. "Every Slam or tournament is different, even more so at the beginning of the season because every tennis player has been working on certain aspects to improve" began the South Tyrolean.

So è returned to the Clostebol case: "I love those around me today, those who trust me first of all as a person. Even in the situation I went through last year and am still going through. I try to surround myself with people who trust me, with whom I can feel confident. My aunt was". 

"È important to spend Christmas with family, but è it was difficult after my aunt passed away – added the blue -. She will always be in my heart, è a special person. It è was a stress to lose such an important person, who gave me so much advice and made me live beautiful moments. My è a close family and I like to be with people who trust me in everything. For this, è it was a strange Christmas".

In Melbourne Jannik will defend the title: "The condition è much warmer than last year, the weather è different and è special to come back to defend the title. I can&#39t wait to get on the field. We still have several days of preparation before the tournament starts and I will tackle everything one step at a time. I have the opportunity to play a couple of exhibition matches before the tournament and I hope to find my rhythm again".

"I have the same hotel room as last year, although I am trying to diversify and enrich the preparation. The car ride to the field? Usually before starting the match hours and hours pass, you can&#39t think much. Nadal had the same driver for 20 years from the’hotel to the court? He was lucky…" concluded Sinner.
