World number two Jannik Sinner approaches the Madrid Open with a focused mindset, aiming to continue his impressive form without succumbing to added pressure. Despite the opportunity to narrow the gap with Novak Djokovic at the top of the rankings, Sinner remains grounded and focused on his game.
With Djokovic opting to skip the Masters tournament to prioritize his fitness for upcoming Grand Slams and the Olympic Games, Sinner sees a chance to capitalize and earn valuable points. However, he emphasizes that he is not allowing the prospect of moving closer to the top spot to burden him.
Having lost only two matches out of 27 this year, Sinner acknowledges the need for continuous improvement to achieve further success. He approaches each tournament with a positive mindset, viewing it as an opportunity to showcase his elevated level of play.
While defending Madrid champion Carlos Alcaraz acknowledges Sinner’s current dominance, he highlights the Italian’s versatility and capability to excel on different surfaces, including clay. Alcaraz recognizes Sinner as a formidable opponent and acknowledges the challenge of competing against him and Djokovic for the top ranking.
As Sinner prepares to showcase his skills at the Madrid Open, he remains focused on his game and determined to make the most of each opportunity. Despite the expectations surrounding him, he maintains a calm demeanor and a commitment to continuous improvement, setting the stage for an exciting tournament ahead.
