Sinner does not know whether he will play on Tuesday in Madrid or not.

Many point to Jannik Sinner as the main favorite to reach the final of the Mutua Madrid Open. Judging by what we see today, his chances may have diminished a bit, and the Italian has a physical problem with his right thigh that could hurt his chances at the Madrid tournament. In response to the press, the Italian was mistaken as to whether he would play tomorrow in the fourth round against Khachanov.

“I’m not too worried,” Sinner began by telling the Italian press, as reported by Ubitennis. “I already felt it after Monte Carlo. Sometimes I feel it more, sometimes less. We are trying to find a solution. From now on I will face stronger people in the tournament and everything will become more physical,” Yannick continued to analyze what can now await him in Madrid, where his opponent will be Karen Khachanov this Tuesday, without a training day.

“Nobody knows what will happen tomorrow, so there is no use asking them now. I wouldn’t like to talk too much about it. If I go out to play tomorrow, you can say that I’m ready to compete. If I don’t do this, then I will do it for my own good in the next tournaments. Knowing me, such a possibility (of not playing) is very small. I’m silent. “I have a very good fitness coach and we work hard,” the No. 1 seed added after playing back a bit and turning down the option of sitting out Tuesday to maintain his physique, which he has already done. For example, at the Paris tournament last year.

Rome and Roland Garros, great goals

Before the game in Madrid, the Italian already said that his two main goals were Rome and Roland Garros. The Spanish tournament was supposed to serve primarily as preparation for these two competitions. Firstly, because it is in their country. The other is for the Grand Slam tournament. He will not take the slightest risk and, in case of danger of disturbing or aggravating this discomfort, will not rush to play. If this happens, in the end it will be because everything is under control.
