Jannik Sinner is well on his way to the top of the rankings. The Italian sensation is having a steady run at the Roland Garros, where he reached the 4th round without dropping a single set to face Sascha Zverev in a finger-licking encounter.
Jannik Sinner’s comparison with Federer, Nadal, Djokovic
At 19 years and 47 days of age, Jannik is the 6th youngest ATP player to reach the 4th round at the Roland Garros in the last 25 years after Novak Djokovic (2006 – 19 years and 11 days), Rafael Nadal (2005 – 18 years and 359 days) and Roger Federer (2000 – 18 years and 299 days).
It’s interesting to notice that Jannik could have been ahead of Nadal and Djokovic if the French slam would not have been postponed because of the Coronavirus pandemic.
