Jannik Sinner has said that he will keep his dating life off social media in an effort to keep his personal life private.
World No. 6 Sinner celebrated success at the recent National Bank
Canadian Open in Toronto. The 21-year-old defeated Alex de Minaur in the final 6-4, 6-1 to win his first ATP Masters 1000 title and his eighth ATP title overall.
In the process, the Italian player received an increase in media attention, with some saying they think he could be part of another Big Three alongside world No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz and world No. 4 Holger Rune, although many argue that it is too early in their careers to make such grand predictions.
Sinner stresses his wish to maintain a private life
However, the young player has stressed his wish to maintain a private life as his profile in the tennis world continues to rise. This is particularly the case when it comes to his dating life.
"Whether or not I am with a girl will never be known on social media, because I want to keep my private life private. I don't need to post a photo to show if I'm engaged or not," he said.
Sinner added that he also never posts pictures with his parents on social media sites such as Instagram, where he has 924000 followers.
"I never posted pictures with my parents, maybe one with my brother," he continued.
Sinner is now preparing to compete at the US Open, where he is the sixth seed. He will face Yannick Hanfmann in the opening round.
