World No. 1 Jannik Sinner has been the standout player of the 2024 tennis season. The Italian became the first player from his country to reach the top of the ATP rankings in June.
He won two Grand Slam titles, three Masters 1000 titles, and the ATP Finals. In a recent interview, the 23-year-old shared some key factors behind his remarkable progression from 2023 to 2024.
I accept myself. I have matured, I understand myself better. It may seem silly, but getting to know yourself is fundamental. I worked a lot on this with Riccardo Ceccarelli [sports psychologist]. Sometimes I lost matches because I had spent too much energy, the cramps, the discomfort started. But when I started to admit that I was wrong, I took small steps forward. In a match, it is easier for me, I easily forget the mistake. In training, on the other hand, I quickly seek to improve.

Jannik Sinner confirms new tournament in 2025 season
Jannik Sinner is already planning his schedule for 2025. He has made some changes to his calendar compared to this year. Darren Cahill had mentioned that the Monte Carlo Masters might be at risk. Sinner’s recent announcements highlight events in February.
Sinner has confirmed that he will play in the ATP Doha 2025. This tournament will now be part of the ATP 500 series. It will take place from February 17 to February 22. This gives him a chance to earn important points early in the season.
The Italian star has also confirmed his return to the Rotterdam Open. He is the defending champion there, so this event is a key part of his February schedule. However, there is uncertainty about his plans beyond March.
The doping investigation involving Sinner is still unresolved. WADA is expected to give its decision soon. Depending on the outcome, his participation in tournaments after March could be affected.
