Jannik Sinner makes a promise for Six Kings Slam semifinal with Novak Djokovic

Just after his clear victory over Stefanos Tsitsipas Jannik Sinner was satisfied with his performance but also talked about tomorrow’s semifinal with Novak Djokovic and his rivalry with his friend Carlos Alcaraz. Here are the words of the world number 2.

“It is good to come back to Riyadh and see so many people in the stands. The first match is not easy, I am happy with today’s performance. It is a strange indoor court because the ball bounces so much and it is quite fast, the conditions are not easy”.

“We all hope it will be a good match with Nole. That is all we hope for. We know each other very well, we have played many times. It is great to share the court with him again. Especially here, in front of you. We will just try to play the best tennis we can. We’ll see how it goes. We are here to have fun, to bring tennis here. And we want to entertain you” too.

“We have a good friendship off the court. On the field we try to play to the best of our ability. Rivalry is all this sport needs. In the past we have had great rivalries. Now there are new players emerging and we push each other to the limit”.
