August 16, 2001: this is the date of birth of one of the rising stars of Italian and world tennis, let's talk about Jannik Sinner, the prodigy of San Candido in the province of Bolzano, is expected from a 2020 that could consecrate him among the best in the world. After all, the boy is already the holder of three Challengers and two ITFs; his goal is only to improve. Endowed with important physical qualities, he boasts a height of 188 centimeters for almost 80 kilos. He is currently at the 78esimo place of the ranking, if we think that only at the end 2018 was in position 551, we can deduce that his 2019 was phenomenal.
Insiders and technicians speak very well of it and undoubtedly point to the affirmation of the Italian tennis player among the top 30 as early as 2020.
Is Jannik Sinner predestined?
The programming that awaits Sinner it will be challenging and exciting, so much so that the player is also highly rated by online tennis betting who every week update the value of individual tennis players and place the South Tyrolean ever higher among the "outsiders" of prestigious tournaments such as the Australian Open and Montpellier to name just a few. In 2019 Jannik Sinner took home 62 victories, of 11 in the major circuits, winning five titles and the finals of the Next GEN ATP: everything suggests that 2020 will be the year of Sinner the predestined.
If we think about his past, however, we see that he was not born with a racket in his hands at all, as his young age and his abilities might suggest. Jannik was indeed passionate about giant slalom which he practiced in the town of Sesto Pusteria where his parents ran a shelter. The definitive choice between tennis and skiing took place only five years ago, when the boy preferred the playful property of tennis in 2014, moving to the training center Plates Tennis Center, managed by Riccardo Piatti and Andrea Volpini in Bordighera.
The 2020 appointments for Sinner
As announced, it will be a year full of challenges, and hopefully satisfactions, for the young Sinner, who will turn 19 next August. After all Jannik and his coach Piatti have already set the goal of "playing a lot" since last year and the coach from Como had stated that he was not interested in the standings as much as in the professional and human growth of the boy, recognizing these elements as fundamental to support to his crystal clear talent.
Emblematic in this sense, the phone call that Piatti made to Sinner on the occasion of the young tennis player's victory of his second Challenger, against Alex Bolt: on that occasion Piatti complimented the boy, but at the same time "wanded" him telling him that he should have won in two sets. Where the details make the difference, masters like Piatti take over, who has coached, among others, Maria Sharapova and will be able to give the young South Tyrolean athlete that experience and race management that could really consecrate Sinner among the greatest ever . The beginning is excellent and you know, well begun is half done.
