How Ivan Ljubicic was impressed by Jannik Sinner
When discussing the match between Sinner and Djokovic, the former Croatian tennis player said, “It was a spectacular match.” Upon the conclusion of the second set, I expressed my satisfaction at witnessing another set of this calibre, as the guys consistently shot with incredible intensity and skill throughout the game.
Everything else was at the greatest level, except for the one instance where Djokovic lost five straight points and subsequently the game and set. I’m interested to see if Jannik’s continuity and consistency caught Nole off guard.” The Italian tennis player’s rapport with his squad impressed Ljubicic, who said, “Jannik’s team involvement after every point impressed me.”
I got the impression that they know how far Sinner has come, but they had to keep reminding him of it. He glances to his squad, and they provide him with the reassurance he seeks. Extremely intensive communication is occurring.” Then, the previous third-ranked player said, “Jannik’s consistency astonished me.
We are aware that, at his best, he is unbeatable by anybody, including Djokovic. His only real downtime may have been during the second set tiebreak, but other than that he was flawless—always pressing, in charge of the match, and quick to the net to serve. He’s prepared to triumph in the largest competitions.”
