Jannik Sinner’s alphabet: C for Schnitzel, O for Olympics, Y for Yannick

The number 1 world tennis player. Jannik Sinner, is making an entire nation dream.

We relied on the alphabet to describe him, with the knowledge that we made some choices and that many would have made others, for example, putting Djokovic in place of Discos at the letter D, or Kalinskaya in place of Kyrgios at the letter K.

A

A of Alcaraz, whose rival he will be for many more years and whom he esteems highly
.
B of Business, Jannik handles business with several companies, including Wooly Lemon and Foxera
C of Cotoletta alla Milanese: he is crazy about it, especially the one prepared by his grandmother
D of discos, clubs he has always avoided from a very young age
E of Emma Navarro, with whom he will play in the mixed doubles tournament at the US Open
F of Fritz, whom he defeated in the 2024 US Open final (6-3, 6-4, 7-5), in his home
G of Grand Slam, his big dream. In 2025 it will not come true, in the future who knows
H from Hanspeter, his father, born in 1964 in Sesto Pusteria
I for Innichen, the German version of Innichen, the town where he was born
J from Jannik and it couldn’t be otherwise
K for Kyrgios, the tennis player who most attacks him and who, probably, most envies him in the world
L of Laila Hasanovic, the beautiful model with whom he has been dating for some time
M from Milan, his favorite soccer team
N of Next Gen ATP Finals, a tournament that brings together the best young talent in international tennis and which he won in 2019
O of Olympics, where all Italians hope to see him finally compete
P of Piatti, probably the first coach to believe in him so clearly
Q of IQ, which in his case is particularly high: just watch him play, just listen to him….
R for Roger Federer, the Swiss star player who was his idol as a child
S of Sofia, where in November 2020 he won his first ATP tournament
.
T of tennis, a sport of which he could become the greatest ever
U of Uno… like his number in the world ranking from June 10, 2024
V from Vagnozzi, the coach with whom he forms a union as solid as it is successful
W of Walther the business-technical school in administration, finance and marketing that Jannik attended in Bolzano
X of X, one of the social networks used by his entourage to narrate his exploits. Sparingly, because Jannik is not crazy about this kind of communication
Y from Yannick, as some incompetent people still think it is called
Z of Aunt Margit, whom he was very fond of and to whom he dedicated his victory at the US Open after her passing
