He faced Argentinian Juan Manuel Cer\u00fandolo, who defeated him with scores of 3-6, 2-6, 7-5, 6-1 and 6-1.\n\nThis defeat represents a hard blow for the tournament, as Sinner was considered the main favorite to win the Grand Slam, to which he arrived after a streak of 30 consecutive victories. The absence of the Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz, who defeated him in last year&#8217;s final, seemed to pave the way for the Italian.\n\nSinner, visibly affected by the high temperatures experienced in Paris, finished the match with physical difficulties. The heat began to take its toll when he was about to secure the victory. After winning the first two sets and leading the third 5-1, the Italian began to show signs of discomfort.\n\nThe tennis player seemed to be having hip problems, although the heat could also have been a factor. The match, which had begun at noon, was already showing a rise in temperature after two hours of play.\n\nTaking advantage of the situation, he managed to break the number one&#8217;s serve and put the score at 5-4. Sinner requested a break and went to the locker room with his medical team. Although he returned, his physical condition was evident.\n\nThe Argentinian maintained the intensity, aware of the opportunity that presented itself. With a visibly weakened opponent, Cer\u00fandolo won the third set.\n\nSinner, unable to recover, struggled to stay in the match, but without success. In the final set, he won one more game out of respect for the public than for real chances of victory.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.efe.com\/efe\/america\/deportes\/sinner-se-despide-de-roland-garros-derrotado-por-cerundolo\/50000010-5264359\" alt=\"Juan Manuel Cer\u00fandolo\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\nSinner, who lost the final last year, seemed headed for victory. The absence of Alcaraz made everyone believe in his chances this season. However, in his first contact with the high temperatures, the Italian was out of the tournament.\n\nCer\u00e1ndolo becomes the third Argentinian to advance to the third round, joining Thiago Tirante and Solana Sierra.\n\nThe Argentinian will face the winner of the match between the Spaniard Mart\u00edn Landaluce and the Czech Vit Kopriva.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Sinner denied that the heat was the reason for his defeat, stating that he had already felt unwell since the morning: &#8220;I woke up as if I had hit a wall.&#8221;<\/p><cite>Jannik Sinner<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nThe world number one, whose streak of 30 consecutive victories was interrupted, stated that it was not the heat or the weather&#8217;s fault, but something personal.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jannik Sinner, World Number 1, Surprisingly Eliminated at Roland Garros Italian tennis player Jannik Sinner, currently number one in the world, suffered an unexpected defeat in the second round of Roland Garros.
