The last Roland Garros only confirmed that when Sinner is at 100%, he’s the best player on clay too. One missed backhand doesn’t change the big picture.
Now it’s time to prepare for grass and go win the 1st of many Wimbledon titles.
Jannik fam, be happy! The time is now.
If Jodar, Fonseca and Mensik keep playing at this level this year - and I think they will - we could have one of the greatest ATP Finals in quite a while
Joao Fonseca. 0-15 down. 5-4 down. 5th set.
1st serve winner.
Forehand winner.
Dropshot & lob.
1st serve winner.
Pressure points are one of the greatest parameters to define elite class.
The amount of class Fonseca has is really high.
Djokovic - Fonseca is actually the match of the year.
The quality of Joao Fonseca on pressure points is a message that the guy is ready to win majors. It’s not about the future. It’s now.
And Nole no words. Moving like that at 39 and playing this type of match is just epic.
Jannik Sinner. Keep your head high. You’ve achieved something that no one in history has ever done before. Winning in completely different conditions. From Indian Weels to Rome. Nothing to prove to anyone
It’s only a matter of time before you win French Open. Multiple times!
Rome 2026. HISTORY! Jannik Sinner at just 24 completes the Career Golden Masters. Seven years younger than Djokovic’s 31.
6th straight Masters title since Paris 2025. 34th wins in a row.
Jannik fam. World of Tennis. Savour this.
In a few years, the heading of this parallel will be:
On one side, Novak Djokovic, who has broken Slam records and many others in tennis history.
On the other side, Jannik Sinner, the man who broke Novak Djokovic’s records.
Today we cannot see the best version of Jannik. The legs are not reactive.
Jannik needs to try to keep the rallies shorter and avoid giving Ruud the opportunity to play too many drop shots that’s going to become a tactical pattern against him for opponents.
Come on Jan!
Since Indian Wells 12 times out of 23 Jannik Sinner has won the 1st Set 6-1 or 6-2.
That’s 52%.
More than half of Jannik’s matches basically started with the opponent already under water.
Pure Dominance.
Flavio Cobolli could become a consistent Top 10 player. Today Flavio wastes too much energy and plays with excessive urgency during rallies. He takes too many risks. Cobolli needs to learn how to play with greater margin while maintaining depth.
Rafa Jodar impressed me a lot.
I hadn’t been this impressed by a player since I first saw Jannik Sinner.
Too early to judge his consistency. I want to understand better how his movement translates across all surfaces.
This version of Jannik Sinner is so difficult to handle. Even for Carlos Alcaraz. Even on clay.
I already believe he is the best player in the world on this surface.
Roland Garros last year already gave that feeling. This season will make it undeniable with big titles on clay.
One year ago, Jannik’s backhand drop shot was not yet a stable pattern in his game. Especially under pressure.
This year, it has become a concrete tactical solution. He can use it to break rhythm, punish deep court positioning and create variation even in the toughest moments.
In this century, three players have won the Sunshine Double.
In history, seven players have achieved it.
Jannik Sinner is the first player to win the Sunshine Double without dropping a set
I don’t really see how Lehecka can trouble Jannik here.
It’s exactly the kind of match Jannik loves. No free points on serve. No real variation, just straight-up baseline tennis in a rhythm he enjoys.
