With just days to go before Wimbledon 2026 kicks off, Jannik Sinner arrives at the All England Club as the defending champion and World No. 1, ready to retain the crown that cemented his place among tennis's elite. Following his semifinal exit at Roland Garros, the Italian star reassured fans regarding his fitness:
"I feel very good right now. After Paris, I underwent several medical checks and everything is fine. I really needed to unplug, and I truly appreciated having a few days off. It gave me more time to prepare the best way possible."
Reflecting on his historic run last year, Sinner didn’t hide the emotion of seeing his name etched on the trophy alongside the sport's greatest legends, admitting that such a milestone felt unrealistic when he was a kid growing up in a small village. The Italian also offered a mature take on the relentless nature of the ATP circuit, where players must constantly hit the reset button. "With my team, we deeply analyzed what went wrong in Paris. Some days you pay the price for the wrong choices, but I’ve learned from it and I believe it will only make me stronger moving forward."
