Jannik Sinner sadly talks about why his father couldn’t compete in the Roland-Garros final.
In a statement that moved fans around the world, Jannik Sinner spoke sadly about one of the reasons that affected his performance during the Roland-Garros final. The young tennis player revealed that his father, due to urgent work commitments, was unable to attend one of the most important matches of his career. This, according to Sinner, significantly affected his motivation and concentration.
Sinner explained that his father’s lack of support at a crucial moment like a final made him more vulnerable. “Not having my father with me, as he always does in important matches, definitely affected me. His presence has always been a source of strength for me,” he said, his voice visibly broken. “I think that was one of the main reasons I couldn’t win,” he added.
The reaction of his mother, present from the sidelines, was equally emotional. Without her husband’s support, Jannik’s mother wept silently throughout the match. Despite her son’s incredible effort, the disappointment of the defeat was palpable and left the fans heartbroken.
Sinner stated that his parents’ support has always been essential to his career. “My father and mother are my greatest motivation,” he declared, visibly moved. “They’ve always supported me, given me strength when I needed it, and taught me to never give up.” With a trembling voice, he spoke of the deep bond he has with his parents, who have been his pillars since the beginning of his career.
Fans in attendance and those watching from home were moved by Sinner’s sincerity and emotion. Many expressed their support on social media, stating that Jannik demonstrated extraordinary courage, even in the face of the difficulty of not having the support of his family at such an important moment.
The Roland-Garros final was undoubtedly a great test for Sinner, but it also demonstrated how family affection and the strength of personal ties can influence even the strongest athletes. Although he didn’t win, Jannik Sinner won everyone’s hearts with his sincerity and dedication.
