Tennis: Jannik Sinner Returns to Action in Montreal
Sinner Claims Victory in Return to Competition
Jannik Sinner, the reigning champion of the ATP Masters 1000 in Toronto, made a triumphant return to action at the National Bank Open in Montreal. The 22-year-old Italian defeated Croatian Borna Coric 6-2, 6-4 in the first round, showcasing his impressive skills despite a four-week hiatus due to illness.
Overcoming Adversity
Sinner had previously lost in five sets to Daniil Medvedev at Wimbledon and withdrew from the Paris Games due to tonsillitis. However, he displayed remarkable resilience and determination in his comeback, claiming his 43rd victory of the year against just four losses.
Next Challenge
Sinner will face the winner of the match between Lorenzo Sonego and Alejandro Tabilo in the round of 16. This will be a tough test for the Italian, but his strong performance and renewed determination bode well for his chances in Montreal.
