“From today, more than ever, Jannik Sinner enters the Pantheon of the everlasting Myths of Italian and world tennis. After a marathon of hope, suffering and emotion, transformed into uncontainable joy, the extraordinary Sinner asserts himself as the king of the Australian Open”. These are the words shared on social media by the president of Coni, Giovanni Malago, following the triumph of Sinner.
The South Tyrolean won the final of the Australian Open against the Russian Daniil Medvedev: “An Italian returns to win a Slam almost 48 years after the last success signed by Panatta: it is a story to applaud, live and project endlessly to write new pages of glory”, the number one in Italian sport continued.
“Congratulations, Jannik. To you, to your staff, to Federtennis. You are an excellence that combines talent with application, awareness with humility. We are all Sinner. Proud of you”. These congratulations reflect the recognition of Sinner's extraordinary victory and his significant contribution to the history of Italian and world tennis.
