Jannik Sinner has confirmed that Simone Vagnozzi will replace Riccardo Piatti as his new coach on social media.
The surprise split between Sinner and Piatti caught many off guards as many expected them to work for a long time. The partnership certainly looked fruitful with Sinner slowly improving over time and essentially coming very close to breaking inside the top 10. Sinner has been linked to a number of names in recent weeks, with John McEnroe, Boris Becker and Magnus Norman all being reported as potential coaching targets for the 20-year-old.
He, though, has opted for a less well-known name, with Vagnozzi chosen to handle the next stage of his development. Sinner wrote:
“Happy to announce I’ll be working with Simone Vagnozzi as my coach moving forward and he will be heading up my team. Currently we have no plans to add any more team members at this time but we will review the situation as we go. Excited to get started on this new chapter, Forza.”
The 38-year-old has had success as a coach, helping guide Marco Cecchinato to the French Open semi-finals in 2018 and also working with Stefano Travaglia.

Happy to announce I’ll be working with Simone Vagnozzi as my coach moving forward and he will be heading up my team. Currently we have no plans to add any more team members at this time but we will review the situation as we go. Excited to get started on this new chapter, Forza.
