World No. 1 Jannik Sinner, fresh off a successful season including two Grand Slam titles, recently discussed his evolving rivalry with Carlos Alcaraz and the shifting landscape of men’s tennis. Ahead of the Paris Masters, Sinner highlighted that the dynamic of the sport extends beyond just him and Alcaraz, suggesting that emerging players can rapidly change the game’s hierarchy.
Sinner reflected on his own rapid rise, noting, “I’ve shown from my side one season and everything can happen and change so fast.” He stressed the importance of hard work and preparation, acknowledging the numerous talented players entering the scene. Despite their rivalry, Sinner believes in maintaining focus on personal growth and sticking to his routines, which include consistent practice and self-care.
In his previous attempts at the Paris Masters, Sinner has struggled, winning just one match across three appearances. However, he remains motivated to showcase his skills this year, indicating that he is ready to face the challenges that lie ahead.
While Sinner recently claimed a significant $6 million prize at the Six Kings Slam, he insisted that financial rewards are not his primary motivation. “I don’t play for money. It’s very simple,” he stated, emphasizing his desire to measure himself against the best players in the world.
As Sinner prepares for the tournament in Paris, he will need to navigate a tough draw that includes formidable opponents like Alex de Minaur, Holger Rune, and Jack Draper. Regardless of the outcome, Sinner’s focus remains on continuous improvement and enjoying the journey of being at the pinnacle of the sport.
