Jannik Sinner’s coach confesses what the young Italian needs to improve

In an exclusive interview given to the Italian portal OA Sport, coach Simone Vagnozzi focused on the aspects on which Jannik Sinner will try to work further, in order to continue growing. “From a technical point of view I think we can improve with the serve. Even if he has served very well in the last period, the runs to the net can become safer, the backhand slice can be played with more confidence in certain situations. All this can help him to work a little less, to sometimes slow down the game a little and to change pace, and then above all in my opinion he can still improve in the tactical part of the game, so he is putting all these things together and it takes some time,” explained Sinner’s coach

Meanwhile Sinner prepares for Melbourne

Sinner’s 2024 will begin at the Kooyong Classic. The Italian tennis player, unlike other seasons, chose not to participate in any official tournament before the Australian Open. The well-known exhibition event will be the only commitment a few days before the first Slam of 2024.
