Jannik Sinner is becoming more and more a model to follow for the generations to come. The young Italian will play against Emil Ruusuvuori on Monday in the 4th round, but once again he hits the headlines with his humility.
During these tough moments, some players vented their frustration about not being able to enjoy the tour as they used to be. According to many, living in a bubble is really tough. However, these kinds of comments have attracted a lot of criticism, especially now that many people are losing their jobs while some other are dying or losing their loved ones.
Jannik Sinner about being privileged

“Playing tennis is the thing I love most. It is a pleasure and an honor to be able to spend five hours on a tennis court, because I know I am privileged. I can live playing tennis while there are people who don’t. they can’t even afford a racket.”
