The desire to take the field immediately, to forget the rest.

Jannik Sinner is approaching the US Open, in which he will make his debut next Tuesday, and which will be the first opportunity to try to put the controversy of recent weeks behind him. Admitting this è was the South Tyrolean himself, who explained what his hopes are at Flushing Meadows and how he is preparing to return to the court.

"We have been through a few things lately,” Sinner admitted to the microphones of 'Sky Sports' -Now I am happy to be here and play the last tournament of this year that is valid for the Grand Slam. Maybe the US Open is the most important event we have between now and the end of the year. So I hope to face them liberally, which was not easy after the last period. I thank my team members, who have kept my spirits up".

"Throughout this difficult period, I have always tried to give the best of myself,” Sinner vouched.

I think the results also show that. More than that I could not do, let’s see now how it goes here at the US Open".

So Sinner explained in more detail how he prepared for the US Open: "Working and training every day, trying every day to bring out the best I can. But above all, I want to have as much fun as possible on the court. I am aware of how it works, so I need to do well on the court right now. McDonald plays very good tennis, so I have to be very careful from the first round. I hope to have a good match".
