"I hope I can regain momentum for the clay season. The first game (Italian Open) will be very difficult. But I want to regain my rhythm."
World No. 1 Yannick Sinner of Italy expressed his determination for his upcoming return to the tennis tour.
Sinner, who will be suspended for about three months on May 4 for doping violation, is scheduled to make a comeback through the Italian Open (May 7-18/Roma), the ATP 1000 tournament in his home country. He is currently training on a court belonging to the Italian Tennis Federation for the first time in a long time.
Sinner, who appeared at a sports gala in his hometown of Namtirol last week, told local broadcaster ORF Südtirol that he has been doing "very intense training over the past month."
Sinner also had limited practice with other players, let alone the team, during the suspension (practice resumed on April 13). As for how he spent that time, Sinner said, "I was away from the busy tour, and I spent it with my family or friends." 카지노사이트
"I challenged myself to something new and created an opportunity to understand me better and see me objectively. I think that helped me a lot."
Fans are waiting for Sinner to return to the Italian Open and even the second Grand Slam French Open of the season (May 25 to June 8/Paris, France).
