Fasten your seatbelts; Jannik Sinner‘s improvements and growth have taken center stage. Since the 2024 tennis season began, he has made a stunning rise into the tennis fraternity after winning his first Grand Slam title at the Australian Open and then reaching a higher level of tournaments, giving tough competition to strong tennis personalities such as Novak Djokovic, Danil Medvedev, and Carlos Alcaraz. After winning the Miami Open, there has been a huge discussion going on regarding the Italian tennis player’s improvement on the court.

Not only that, even Andy Roddick added fuel to the discussion by posing a strong question to Mats Wilander about the 22-year-old tennis player’s recent improvement. The Swedish tennis player stated, “It’s an incredible improvement, an improvement that I don’t think I’ve seen in a young player since the Big 3, when Novak Djokovic went from being a normal player to understanding, ‘I’m better than these guys. If I play close to my best, I can just play my game.’ That’s the improvement Jannik Sinner has made.”

According to the 59-year-old former tennis player, Sinner’s improvement and quick development are something that he has not seen since the 24-time Grand Slam Champion’s rise on the court. On the other hand, Wilander’s observation highlights the Italian tennis player’s extraordinary potential and impressive growth; it also makes him one of the tennis world’s most promising possibilities.

But regarding how huge it is to put someone just after the Serbian tennis player, Roddick commented on the Tennis Channel’s post that shared the Swedish player’s statement and questioned him back on his original claim. He commented, “I love Mats and agree w the sentiment. Didn’t Alcaraz go from outside top 30 to year-end number 1 in same year?”

The former American tennis player brought the 20-year-old Spaniard into the scene, highlighting how he is also someone who has seen a sudden rise on the court, looking at the way he has completed at the higher level, winning Grand Slam titles and sitting in the top-ranked ATP positions for months now.

Not only has the second-ranked tennis player improved on the court, but he has also improved as a person and as a player, regarding the way he used to look up to tough competitions on the court. A few days ago, he opened up about dealing with his nervousness and showing his maturity at the Miami Open.

Sinner’s rising growth as an individual athlete

Jannik Sinner, who won the Miami Open finals, showed off his newly acquired maturity at a press conference. As he considered his development, he related a story from the previous year in which he acknowledged having restless nights just before taking on Daniil Medvedev in the championship match. He did, however, say that he competed this year with a more laid-back and mature attitude, letting things happen naturally.

Sinner said, “It’s the first time where I really felt a match was in the first time that I played the final here. I still remember the night that, you know, I couldn’t sleep because, you know, I was not sure if I could get back in this position again. So for me was like even if I was really young and able to make this final, I was, like, who knows if I can be again in a final? Like, back in the days.”

Furthermore, Sinner highlighted his delight with the advancements he had made during a number of tournaments by expressing satisfaction with his performance as well as his own growth over the previous few months.
