"Now, I have a few days ahead of me to recover," Sinner casts doubt on his participation in the US Open mixed doubles
In the final of the Cincinnati Masters 1000, Sinner had to retire at 0-5 in the first set. An unfortunate event that has raised doubts about his participation in the US Open mixed doubles scheduled for this Tuesday. While he made no definitive statement on the matter, the world number one did say this in the press area:
"I think it’s been a very positive week overall. Reaching the final of a Masters is always a great achievement. In this current season, it’s another very good result. So we’ll take that. Now, there are a few things I need to improve if I want to go far at the US Open.
This week has been a very good test to understand where my level is at. Still, there’s room for improvement. Now, I have a few days ahead of me to recover, and then we’ll get back to work. I hope I’ll be ready."
For reference, he is paired with Czech player Siniakova. The two players are set to begin against the Bencic-Zverev duo.
