ATP Finals: Jannik Sinner doesn’t hide: “With Fritz, I will have to raise the bar.”

The words of Jannik Sinner

Always striving for perfection, otherwise you wouldn’t get to the world’s No. 1. Jannik Sinner è so è he is not satisfied with a victory that against Alex de Minaur è has now become routine (8 out of 8, Alex è Alex è the ’mostù opponent beaten in Jannik’s career) although “every match with him è different” says Jannik in the conference. “De Minaur è a great fighter, you have to look not only at the result but also at how the match goes”, Sinner explains.

“I am happy anyway with how’è it went, I had not played an official match for 4 weeks. “I am proud that I was able to play at this level in my debut here in Turin”. On Tuesday evening, at 8:30 p.m., Sinner will challenge Taylor Fritz in a match that can already prove decisive for the passage of the round: if Jannik beats the American and De Minaur wins against Medvedev, Sinner would be certain of the first place in the round already on the second day. “Fritz è improved so much in the last two years. He serves much better, hits really hard and è a great fighter. He played a great match against Medvedev, we faced each other earlier in the week: è it was a tough practice, I know he will have to raise his level to beat him”.

Finally, space for a curious backstory on the change of social media manager: “From this week there’è a person who helps us, è very good and è an expert in these things but above all è very easygoing, he understands how our group also because’è from our parts”. Just one more ingredient for the perfect Jannik recipe.
