Details of Jannik Sinner's golden racket revealed

by

The king of the 'Six Kings Slam' continues to be Jannik Sinner, who also won the second edition of this prestigious exhibition tournament without losing a single set. In Saudi Arabia, the former world No. 1 defeated Greek ace Stefanos Tsitsipas in the quarterfinals, Serbian legend Novak Djokovic in the semifinals and his huge rival Carlos Alcaraz in the final yesterday.

The 24-year-old Italian has proven to be the best in the world in indoor conditions, which is why it is legitimate to consider him as the big favorite in the tournaments in which he will participate between now and the end of the season. The star from Sesto Pusteria will be back in action as early as this week, before focusing his attention on the Paris Masters 1000 in the new venue and then on the Nitto ATP Finals in Turin.

The four-time Grand Slam champion will make a decision on his participation in the Davis Cup Finals in Bologna only at the last minute, after having dragged Italy to triumph in the last two editions in Malaga.

Meanwhile, Jannik pocketed crazy prize money for the second year in a row and was also handed a solid gold racket during the awards ceremony. This racket is made with 4 kilos of 24-carat gold and has a value of over 400,000 euros, as well as being made entirely by hand by ten people.

"I'm happy to be back here after last year's experience, the organization is fantastic and it's important to bring tennis to different areas of the world than usual," said the world number 2 during his press conference.

He is very proud of the level he has expressed in recent days: "Although it is not a Grand Slam tournament, I am still very satisfied with my level and I hope to continue like this until the end of the year. I've been working hard with my team since the US Open and I think mentality has made all the difference during this time."

The Italian player will now try to win his second career title in Vienna.
