Jannik Sinner denies being “the one to beat” on the ATP Tour despite not losing a set in 2024.
The 22-year-old has 15 wins this season after winning 12 straight games and his maiden Grand Slam titles at the Australian Open and Rotterdam Open on Sunday.
He helped Italy win the Davis Cup in 2023 with three wins. His 35 matches included losses against Novak Djokovic at the November ATP Finals and Ben Shelton at the October Japan Open.
Despite his perfect record, Jannik Sinner remained calm when asked if he was the men’s tennis champion.
“The one to beat” dares. Before Sunday’s Rotterdam Open final, he told Vanity Fair Italia, “I’m ranked No. 4 in the world right now.”
Even though I won, I must work hard and be ready because my opponents know my weaknesses. I’m too strong for you.

Regarding the “ones to beat,” he said, “Daniil Medvedev and Alexander Zverev are playing very well.” Two years ago, my junior, Carlos Alcaraz, won two Slams. Next is ninth-ranked Novak Djokovic. It’s Nole.
After dominating the Melbourne Park Grand Slam opening round, legendary Italian tennis player Nicola Pietrangeli called Sinner a “complete tennis player” who “has no weak points at the moment.”.
The young prodigy has recognized areas for improvement to avoid appearing pompous.
He adds, “I can handle challenging situations even better, and I still have a lot to learn from my mistakes.” It will become harder, but I’m managing. Prepare for them today.”
Jannik Sinner won Rotterdam to finish third and become Italy’s top male tennis player.
“It’s a dream we’re pursuing,” he says. “It is impossible to predict the future.”
