After losing to Novak Djokovic after a big fight in five sets, the Italian Jannik Sinner talked about the match very disappointingly.
Sinner admitted when Novak managed to break.
“It is played in five sets.” When you’re 2-0 up, you play your best in every set. In the third set, I served, it was 0:15, and I sent a forehand into the net, 0:30. Then he played a good point. Instead of 15:30, it was 0:40, and that’s when he broke me. He played better from that point on. Like I said, I played the fifth set the right way. I had to do a bit more than that, as he was dictating the points. That’s it. “-Began Sinner.
I just tried to continue. I think I played well. I knew something was going to change, so I tried to be prepared for it. It is certain that when you win the first two sets, you will be positive. Even if it’s 2-2, you’re in the same position as your opponent. I mean, we both have to play a fifth set. I gave my all. I hope one day I can come back and play even better. “
During the tournament, Novak even trained with the young Italian.
“We have a similar style of tennis.” I like training with him; he hits the ball well. On the one hand, it can help you because you know what to expect. On the other hand, we also know each other’s weaknesses. “After training together, we both won matches. -Concluded Jannik.
