During a meeting with President Sergio Mattarella at the Quirinal Palace in Rome on February 1st, Jannik Sinner found himself struggling to contain his laughter as Matteo Arnaldi and Lorenzo Sonego attempted to tickle his funny bone. The Italian Davis Cup team gathered at the presidential palace to commemorate their recent title victory.
Led by the newly crowned 2024 Australian Open champion, the Italian team clinched their first trophy in nearly 50 years by defeating Australia in the final with a decisive 2-0 scoreline. Joining Sinner in the victorious squad were Lorenzo Musetti and Simone Bolleli, both present at the ceremony alongside the president.
During his turn to address the gathering, Jannik Sinner took to the stage to deliver a speech of gratitude. However, the solemn moment took a humorous turn when Sinner struggled to contain his laughter, prompted by Arnaldi and Sonego's playful antics from the front row, aimed at eliciting a chuckle from the young star.
Sinner's return to competition:
Following his remarkable triumph at the 2024 Australian Open, where he staged a comeback from two sets down against Daniil Medvedev (3-6, 3-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-3), Jannik Sinner opted for a brief hiatus from competitive action. With his first Grand Slam title secured, Sinner is set to make his return at the ATP 500 Rotterdam Open.
As the second seed, Sinner trails only behind defending champion Daniil Medvedev. The tournament, which he won last year by defeating Sinner in the final. This year's tournament boasts a formidable main draw, featuring five top-10 players. Among them are Andrey Rublev (No. 5), Holger Rune (No. 7), and Hubert Hurkacz (No. 8),
Rotterdam marks the lone event for Sinner before heading into the 'Sunshine Double,' where he faces the challenge of defending significant points after reaching the semifinals in Indian Wells and the final at the Miami Open in 2023.
