ATP Finals, Sinner victorious but displaced: “Gialappa’s imitations? Um, who?”

This too è gone

This è also went for Jannik Sinner. “A high-level match” the one against Taylor Fritz, as told by the’South Tyrolean in the press conference, “very different from both the first one in Turin and the final at the US Open”.

Spurred on by a very as always warm audience, the world’s No. 1 was so appreciative of Turin’s support. “È a very different tournament from all the others, I never take this for granted. Playing in Italy for an Italian è fantastic, sometimes I still surprise myself. There’è so many people waiting outside the’hotel…”.

Despite two wins out of two and four sets won out of four, however, Sinnerè s qualification is not yet mathematical. All Jannik needs is to win one set against Daniil Medvedev to be sure of the passage to the round: the Blue will challenge a reinvigorated Medvedev on Thursday evening. ““I forò did not ask, I did not ask to play in the afternoon or evening… I only learned about it after my match”. And to conclude a tidbit: when asked if he had already heard his imitations on the Gialappashow, Jannik replied: “who?”, eliciting laughter from the entire conference room.
