MADRID. The South Tyrolean champion Jannik Sinner returns to the field at the Masters 1000 in Madrid. Tonight’s match saw him face the Russian Pavel Kotov, after beating his friend and national doubles partner, Lorenzo Sonego.
The tennis player from Sesto is number one in the Spanish tournament draw after Novak Djokovic decided not to participate. Thus the race towards the top of the tennis world continues for Sinner.
The match ended with a clear victory for the Italian tennis player, who beat Kotov in three sets 6-2, 7-5, in a match that Sinner considered difficult due to the pain in his hip.
“In the first set I was in control while in the second I had some more difficulties. I struggled a little and we’ll see how it goes tomorrow, what’s best for my body – said Sinner after the victory, obtained despite a pain felt in the second set “I’ve had some problems with my right hip in recent times – explained the South Tyrolean -. It’s nothing serious. Sometimes I feel it stronger, like today, sometimes less but I have a good team that takes care of me and I count on being at my best tomorrow.”
