If he has to rest, it will be difficult for him to find the form to win a Grand Slam," says Ljubicic about Sinner

Jannik Sinner arrives at the US Open with mixed emotions after his withdrawal in the final played against Carlos Alcaraz.

According to Ivan Ljubicic, this could also have an impact at the US Open. In an interview given to La Gazzetta dello Sport, he explains: "It depends on the duration of the injury.

If he recovers in two or three days, there will be no setback. If he has to rest all week, it will be difficult for him to regain the form necessary to win a Grand Slam.

Even though Jannik will face more manageable opponents in the early rounds, the best-of-five-set distance, the heat, and the humidity of Flushing Meadows could drain a lot of his energy.
