Jannik Sinner is a well-known name in the world of professional tennis in Italy. The Association of Tennis Professionals ranked him as high as world No. 9 on November 1, 2021, and as world No. 124 in doubles on September 27, 2021.
He reached his highest point in singles plays on November 1, 2021.
By winning the 2020 Sofia Open, Sinner became the youngest player to hold an ATP championship since 2008 and the youngest player to have five titles since Novak Djokovic in 2007.
Sinner has won five ATP titles in singles competition and one in doubles competition. With his victory in the 2021 Citi Open, he became the youngest player ever to win an ATP 500 event.
South Tyrol in northern Italy was Sinner’s home when he was a child. As a young boy, his favorite sports were skiing, football, and tennis.
After winning a national championship in skiing when he was just eight years old, Sinner shifted his concentration to tennis when he was thirteen years old and relocated to the Italian Riviera to study with seasoned coach Riccardo Piatti.
Despite having had moderate success as a junior, Sinner started competing in professional tournaments at the age of 16 and was one of the very few players to win multiple ATP Challenger Tour titles by the time he was 17 years old.
After breaking into the top 100 of the ATP rankings, advancing to his first ATP semifinal, and claiming victory at the Next Generation ATP Finals in Milan, he was awarded the ATP Newcomer of the Year title for 2019.
Sinner maintained his ascent into the top 50 in 2020 by earning his first victory in the top 10, advancing to the quarterfinals of the French Open (being the youngest player to do so in men’s singles since Novak Djokovic in 2006), and winning his first ATP title.
He got off to a good start in 2021, winning his second ATP championship in a row and finishing in second place in a Masters 1000 tournament (the Miami Open).
On November 1, 2021, he made history by being the first player born in the 2000s to crack the top 10 of the ATP rankings.

Jannik Sinner Predictions
There have been a few bumps on the road for the former world No. 1, who is aiming to win his fourth straight Wimbledon title.
Soonwoo Kwon of Korea beat him in the first round, but he lost to Thanasi Kokkinakis, Miomor Kecmanovic, and Van Rijthoven all in straight sets.
Generally speaking, he’s playing well enough to make the finals. Especially in light of the other half of the top half of the draw that has made it through.
It’s possible that his encounter with Sinner will be the most difficult for him until the final. Sinner’s chances were growing longer and longer as the night drew on.
That doesn’t mean that Djokovic will win in straight sets. Even though it would be a tremendous statement, Sinner is an excellent player.
