Jannik Sinner is back on the practice court for the first time since his historic Wimbledon triumph. World no. 1 was spotted training at his home in Monte Carlo, shifting his focus to hard courts as he begins preparations for two notable events in the US.
Sinner opted to skip the Canada Masters in Toronto to recover physically and mentally following his brilliant Wimbledon run that saw him lifting his fourth Major crown at 23.
Now, withfresh energy and growing confidence, Jannik is working hard ahead of the Cincinnati Masters, where he lifted a trophy a year ago.
Cincinnati marks a crucial stop for the Italian, not only as a titleholder but also as a tune-up for the US Open. Sinner is defending 3000 ATP points in the upcoming weeks. He needs good results to keep his closest rival, Carlos Alcaraz, behind on the ATP ranking list.
Jannik will arrive in New York as the top favorite. He will seek his fourth straight hard-court Major crown, dominating on this surface since the beginning of 2024. Sinner is 99-9 in the previous two seasons, conquering many notable titles and leaving everyone behind.
More importantly, he is 27-1 at the previous four Majors, lifting three titles from four finals and writing history books at such a young age. Jannik aims to extend that streak in New York, and who can bet against him!
With his return to training and his eyes set on upcoming goals, the 23-year-old looks ready to continue his remarkable run on the sport's biggest stages. His first goal. The first Masters 1000 crown since October last year.
Twelve months ago, Jannik prevailed over Andrey Rublev, Alexander Zverev and Frances Tiafoe en route to his first Cincinnati Masters title.
