Jannik Sinner 'a millimetre' from Novak Djokovic believes Adriano Panatta: "Nole fears him"
ATPWednesday, 29 November 2023 at 05:30
Former French Open winner Adriano Panatta believes Italyโs young
tennis star Jannik Sinner is just โmillimetreโ away from the level of Serbiaโs
legendary tennis star Novak Djokovic.
The 22-year-old is often regarded as the most highly-rated player
in the menโs singles category currently playing in the circuit alongside Spainโs
Carlos Alcaraz and Americaโs Ben Shelton.
Panatta was recently quoted in a report where he heaped
praise on Sinner who according to him is very close to the level of Djokovic.
โAll thatโs missing is Rome and Paris, then weโre done! Iโm
happy, I donโt know the word envy. Iโm dying and Sinner is being born!โ he said.
โHe is an example, he is a millimetre from Djokovic, they play on equal terms.
โSaving three match points is a feat within a feat. Next
time, Jannik will start with an advantage. Nole fears him. With Jannik, we are
good for ten years, he is square and mature.โ
Sinner recently
defeated Djokovic twice in a week. First, he got the better of the legendary
tennis star in the ATP Finals with a score of 7-5, 6-7, 7-6. Later in the Davis
Cup, the current world number four once again got the better of the 24-time
Grand Slam winner which helped Italy in cementing a place in the final.
