Jannik Sinner: World No 2 confirms aim to return to tennis at Australian Open after lengthy absence with knee injury

The world No. 2 says he will not rush recovery and plans an end-of-December exhibition before his Australian Open comeback.

  • On Tuesday in Milan, world number two Jannik Sinner confirmed he will not rush his recovery from a knee injury, targeting a return to action at next year's Australian Open.
  • The 25-year-old has not competed since winning his fifth Grand Slam title at Wimbledon in July, an injury-plagued season that saw Alexander Zverev overtake his ATP ranking last week.
  • Sinner parted ways with coach Darren Cahill after four years, with Sweden's Magnus Norman joining his coaching set-up alongside Simone Vagnozzi to provide continuity.
  • The Six Kings Slam exhibition event in Saudi Arabia, postponed until late December due to conflict in the Middle East, is where Sinner plans to test his return to competition.
  • Sinner aims to continue playing for another 10 to 15 years, emphasizing that he is following medical protocols carefully to avoid further injury and ensure long-term career longevity.
