L'former world No. 1 advises Jannik Sinner after knockout with Carlos Alcaraz

L’former world number one Jim Courier, a well-known great admirer of Jannik Sinner, in a podcast with Andy Roddick spoke about the Rome final lost by the Blue to Carlos Alcaraz. According to the American, Sinner needs to imitate what Novak Djokovic has done in the past.

“Let&#8220s analyze Sinner&#8217s second serve response. Towards the end of the first set, at the moment that was decisive in the match, on the tied situation it seems to me that he was starting to take his stance a little bit’ further back”.

“He perhaps needs to take a cue from Novak Djokovic and go strong and deep in the middle in the response to that second serve, keeping his feet well anchored on the baseline so that he doesn”t get pushed too far off the court then with his backhand.

Sinner missed two set points in the final of the first set before losing the partial set at tie-break.
