Jannik Sinner has been one of the breakout players in 2021 and he sat down with ATP to discuss his pandemic.
Jannik Sinner has been enjoying a breakout season in 2021 after somewhat breaking out in 2020. This season he has been a consistent performer going deep at several events which includes the 2021 Miami Open final (l. to Hurkacz). The Italian sat down with ATP to do a feature explaining how he dealt with the pandemic.
He spoke about how he kept sane during the pandemic talking about staying fit in Monaco:
"We made a little space in my apartment in Monaco. It is not that big but somehow we managed to practice. It was tough I have to say it. I missed touching the ball and hearing the ball."
He also touched upon the importance of his family because his family, unfortunately, experienced COVID fully:
"Everyone had COVID in my family but everyone is safe now."
For Sinner, it was a daunting experience that made him realize how important mental health really:
"Mental health is important because many people don't speak about that so I would like to speak more about it. I started a program called 'What's kept you moving."
Sinner explained the reasoning behind it as a way to help younger people who have been struggling a lot with quarantine. Wrapping up Sinner expressed his gratitude for being able to compete again:
"Here we are. We are out and we finally can compete again and I am happy about that."

- Either Lena has a chronic internal ailment (i.e., colitis, enteritis, Crohn's, or some type of lower abdomen issue) -- or she is once again dealing with 'Vukovitis'. Mental stress can indeed cause lower body pains. No matter... whatever is truly going on sucks. "Virus" excuse is getting a bit old -- and often -- at this point.

- "Another fresh start is in the cards." Thanks for the Humor!! I'm guessing this is the minimum one can do to keep all your sponsors hanging-on in perpetuity?mandoist09-11-2026
- Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension. Just ask WTA employees how that's been going lately as they witness his continued verbal abuses. Women's Pro Tennis should start over.mandoist08-11-2026
- Can't help but suspect Vukov is back to his old self again. Thank you, WTA. Perhaps you can give them a "Battling Couple of the Year Award 2026" ??mandoist08-11-2026

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.mandoist06-11-2026

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
