London – Italian tennis player Jannik Sinner, visibly focused on his participation in Wimbledon, has taken important precautions for his next match. During training prior to the semi-finals against Novak Djokovic, Sinner was seen with a protector on his right elbow. This preventive measure is not new for the player. He had already used this type of protection during Wednesday’s warm-up and in his quarter-final match against Ben Shelton. “The pain is improving. I have played with painkillers, which has helped me. It’s not easy to return the strong serves, but yes, it’s not something very crazy, because if not I would be much more worried,” he said.
“Time helps and now I have a day to recover, which is going to be good. On Friday I will be at 100%,” he stated.
