Jannik is hungry again: “Success has arrived, but now let’s think about new challenges. When I’m not working I feel bad, I only feel at peace with myself when I’m with my team, giving the best of myself”
“When I don’t work I feel bad, I only feel at peace with myself when I’m with my team, giving the best of myself in training and in the gym. This is my obsession.” Always improve, never rest on your laurels, the success achieved means nothing if you are not already looking towards the next goal. Words from the gospel according to Jannik Sinner, who in the press conference before his debut at Indian Wells, the first Masters 1000 ATP of 2024 which sees him still undefeated, immediately makes it clear, to himself and to his opponents, that what has been achieved in recent months , from the Davis Cup in Malaga to the Australian Open in Rotterdam up to the rise to number three in the world, have not satisfied him in the slightest, on the contrary his hunger for tennis and victories is more alive than ever.

The 70,000 people at San Siro cheering him on, the tennis and non-tennis Italy that adores him and the many awards are things that have made him feel alive, but never more than when he works to improve himself further. “There were moments when I realized I had done something great – says Sinner -. Thinking about it is normal, and although I rarely live on social media and am practically never in Italy, I have felt and continue to feel all this incredible affection, and I am happy about this. The most important thing for me, however, is to continue working, I am obsessed with work, if I don’t work and train I feel bad. Doing all this, having my team around, is the most important thing. Success has arrived, let’s think about new challenges.”

Jannik had this feeling, this hunger, even after the Australian Open. The Melbourne trophy is in Monte Carlo in his apartment, it took him relatively little to leave because even when he was in Rome, immediately after his return from Australia, for the events that awaited him, including celebrations and meetings with the president Sergio Mattarella was already thinking about returning to the gym and on the pitch.

After Rotterdam “we worked a lot with my team – says Sinner -. Luckily we manage to do and try many things even during tournaments, this could be a key for the future. I tried new variations, the opponents now know me better and this is also a good challenge. I am happy to be in Indian Wells, in this great tournament, I feel that I have prepared well and that I am ready to play great tennis.” She never carries anything special in his bag: “This time I brought a speaker to listen to music, but the important thing for me is that there are shoes and rackets inside the bag, this is enough for me.” Only praise for his team: “I get on equally well with Simone Vagnozzi and Darren Cahill – says the Italian number one – We managed to create this alchemy, where neither of them feels above the other”. Another little, big secret from a team that is doing truly incredible things.
