After Cincinnati’s retirement, Jannik will rest for a couple of days to eradicate the virus and recover the forces. Then he will return to work
It was a virus, most likely, to put Ko Jannik Sinner, forced to retire after 23 minutes in the Cincinnati final against Carlos Alcaraz. The blue took the field just to honor the expected event: from the first bars, it appeared slow, not reactive, clearly debilitated. He had begun to feel bad from the day before, then on the night of the eve the conditions, rather than improving, worsened. “I’m too bad, I can’t move,” he told the ATP medical staff before raising white flag. And now? The US Open, so close to the Ohio Masters 1000, starts in five days. Will Sinner manage to recover?

The Road Map for the back in shape has already taken immediately after the sad award ceremony. Sinner himself explained: “The US Open will surely be a difficult tournament, but at the same time I can’t wait to play it. If I am ready, both physically and mentally, then I will be ready to give my best. Now I need a couple of days of recovery and then I will come back to train, hoping to get ready. Us Open, of course, is the main objective”. Today Jannik undergoes the deepening exams. The suspicion is that it was a virus. In recent days, in Cincinnati, the extreme conditions have landed several players, it is not excluded that the origin should be traced here. Rest, then, is the best medicine to recover strength. Sinner will skip the double mixed double tournament, in which he should have debuted today, paired with the Czech Siniakova.

The next few hours will be dedicated to eradicating the virus, then Jannik will return to the field to resume the physical fitness. And to fix something on a technical level, in a gear that is constantly projected towards perfection. The number 1 in the world explained: “In Cincinnati it was a very positive week, a good test. I am playing an incredible season, but there is still room to improve. I have some points on which I have to grow if I want to go far to the US Open. Which? The service and the percentage of first, we will work a lot on that”. Thursday there will be the draw on the scoreboard. The first round, distributed over three days, will begin to play on Sunday. Sinner should debut on Monday, or more likely, Tuesday. Of course, the heat of New York will not help, but the times for recovery are there and the first games will serve Jannik to gradually find its level.
