Tennis fans will be disappointed to learn that Jannik Sinner, the powerful player from Italy, will have to withdraw from the Madrid Open because of a hip issue. The world number two, who is renowned for his strong baseline play and acute angles, was expected to have a difficult quarterfinal encounter against Felix Auger Aliassime, but instead had to handily defeat his opponent.
Sinner, who has been dominating the competition this season and taking home numerous titles, expressed regret for the circumstances, but he has been struggling for a while with a hip injury. He was one of the favorites to win the title in Madrid, so his absence has definitely upset the odds. The tennis world wishes him a quick recovery and looks forward to seeing him return to the game soon to demonstrate his talent and tenacity, which have made him a rising star in the game.
This was his post.
