In the season on Earth he changed the answer, on the grass he learned to slip: now Jannik returns to the favorite surface and resume the strong points of his game from number 1
After the season on Earth with two finals and the grass with the triumph of Wimbledon, Jannik Sinner is ready to ritualize the surface he loves most: the cement. The domain of the n.1 of the world on the tough in the last twelve months has been almost total, with 36 wins and two defeats (last in Beijing against Carlos Alcaraz, in the final) and five tournaments won: two Slam (US Open and Australian Open), the Finals of Turin and the Masters 1000 of Shanghai and Cincinnati. Counting also Davis, we would be 39 wins and the conquest of the second consecutive salad bowl. How will Sinner’s way of playing on concrete change? To deal with Alcaraz on Earth and on the grass and to win, the blue and his team had to make tricks, with Jannik who perfectly received the indications of Darren Cahill and Simone Vagnozzi, coming not only to play it with the Spanish phenomenon, but also to beat him, as happened in Wimbledon, and to have matches point in favor, as in Paris.
the answer
–
Sinner managed to play on earth and on the grass almost as if he were his beloved concrete. On the red, for example, Jannik changed the answer, first of all, the blow in which he already had equal, Djokovic aside. The number one in the world has taken on a more advanced position on the field, which is unusual on this surface, where usually we tend to play further back compared to the other surfaces, almost on the “tarpaulins”, to respond more “calm” and thus start the exchange. Not only that. Jannik also tried a more oblique position, with his left foot to the usual compared to the usual. The result? Sinner managed to obtain such a precise timing on the ball that also on Earth totally caught the opponents by surprise, with an advance to remove their breath to those who are on the opposite side of the net.

On the grass, after a difficult start (also the defeat with Bublik ad Halle), Sinner has perfectly adapted. The sliding, the support of dancers and the non -crackling shots of the first rounds left space, from the quarterfinals with Shelton, as the deadly repertoire of Jannik that we all know. Simply, the n.1 of the world has set itself as set to the rebound and the most irregular ball, also helped by the fields that in the second week become more similar to the earth (the famous “TERBA”), which allowed Sinner to have more ease in loading the blows. Who have returned to being deadly.

And on cement? The season that begins in a few weeks in Montreal, in the first appointment of the American trip, is the natural habitat of Jannik. On the hard Sinner, with his way of playing, he immediately takes control of the exchange, managing him at will thanks to the extraordinary variety of strokes he has: precise, corner and very powerful, with an average ball speed higher than most of the opponents. Check with the straight, check with the reverse, taking advantage of an ideal rebound for the tennis of n. 1 of the world. Loading the blows, the ball that comes out alive from the racket. In response Jannik manages to remove the rhythm from the other, gaining in a few seconds and meters, thanks to an unreal cruise speed for others. With the service, he manages to immediately put the opponent in difficulty, ending it in most cases within a few shots. A nightmare for Sinner’s opponents, who are thus in front of them not only player who makes a little mistakes and has incredible fundamentals, but who takes away the time to reason with an advance on the unreal blow. In this way, Jannik manages to pull a more tense blow, which passes near the network, much closer than the opponents, and therefore more powerful and difficult to control. Unique qualities, for the blue. That no one, to date, can reply.
