Jannik Sinner

in the press conference after the victory in the Miami Open - But the most important aspect is the quality of the performances I expressed here, especially in the semi-final and in the final. I never thought I'd find myself in this position, it's a wonderful feeling. If they had told me on January 1st that I would be experiencing this start to the season, I would never have believed it." 

At the start of the conference, the Italian was the protagonist of a nice exchange with the author of the first question, who defined him as "number 1 in the ranking". "Number one?" replied Sinner, who after the correction underlined "unforced error", arousing the laughter of the journalists.

The season started very well, it even went beyond my expectations, but I see every tournament as a new opportunity and I know that I still have a lot to prove - continued Sinner - I'm lucky enough to work with a great team that supports me and encourages me to always do better. I'm happy with my life and my season, I've played many matches and won three prestigious tournaments (also the Australian Open and Rotterdam, ed.), but in a few days we'll start training again and there will be many other tournaments to face." 

If anyone imagined Jannik Sinner ready to open a bottle of champagne for the victory at the Miami Open which projected him to second place in the ATP ranking, they were wrong: "I'm not a guy for big celebrations - the South Tyrolean said in the conference press, reiterating sobriety and discipline - A quiet dinner with my team is enough for me (the evening after the success he spent in Downtown Miami, in the usual Italian restaurant that welcomed him during the two weeks of the tournament, ed.). And It was a special week and I'm happy about it, but now we go home and start preparing for Monte Carlo. There isn't much time."
