New medical checks for Jannik Sinner. The number one in world tennis went to the San Raffaele hospital in Milan for a series of scheduled tests after the illness he suffered during the second round match at Roland Garros against the Argentine Juan Manuel Cerundolo, a match which then led to his elimination from the Parisian tournament.
The South Tyrolean champion spent several hours in the Diamond pavilion of the Milanese healthcare facility to undergo the tests necessary to clarify the causes of the physical problem that emerged on the French red clay. Upon leaving the hospital in the afternoon, Sinner made no statements, limiting himself to a quick greeting to the reporters present. According to what we understand, the investigations have not yet been completed and will continue the following day.
Binaghi rejects the controversy
The president of the Italian tennis and padel federation, Angelo Binaghi, intervened on the moment experienced by the Italian tennis player, who firmly denied the rumors according to which Sinner had considered skipping the Italian internationals to preserve his physical condition.
“It’s the biggest nonsense in the world,” Binaghi declared to Radio Rai Gr Parliament. «Jannik never doubted for a single second about playing in Rome. The fact that he played and won with great physical effort is an act of love towards our country and our movement.”
According to the number one of Fitp, the problems that emerged in Paris would be the natural epilogue of a situation that has already been present for some time. «He had won and played too much, so if it hadn’t happened that Thursday it would have happened a few days later. He was already in those conditions in Rome”, explained Binaghi.
Despite the delicate moment, the federal president said he is convinced that the Italian champion will be able to transform this experience into a further step forward in his growth path. «Jannik will not miss the opportunity to become even stronger», he concluded.
