The Jannik Sinner-Darren Cahill pairing proved unstoppable once again in Paris: the Blue won his second tournament in two weeks and his relationship with the Australian coach grew even stronger after the rift during the match against Shelton. Repeated hugs and smiles between the two at the end of the match are worth more than a thousand words, just now when the super coach has to decide whether to continue the partnership with the South Tyrolean or stop.

The decision will come after the ATP Finals, but according to the’former champion Boris Becker, the choice would have already been made: “For me, Darren will not stop – said the’former German tennis player to Corriere della Sera -. Me? I am in another phase of life, the family is expanding, I have a new business. I don”t want to be on the road so much and maybe the role of coach is starting to get tight for me”.

Meanwhile, rumors are filtering in about possible replacements in case of a farewell: Ivan Ljubicic, Roger Federer’s former coach, would be the number one candidate. The coach himself has not closed the door in the past: “Surely if a call comes from such a player it is fair to think about it”.

But the best choice to keep winning would be just to keep Cahill, and Sinner knows that very well.
