Sinner Switches to "Champion Mode" in Dubai
Although the 2026 season has not yet begun, Jannik Sinner has already shifted to a higher gear.
Having settled in Dubai for a few days, the Italian number one has returned to the courts with intensity.
After a gradual start, Sinner decided to drastically increase his workload to arrive in the best possible shape in Melbourne, the stage of his greatest triumph.
The Arrival of Darren Cahill
Darren Cahill, 60 years old and Sinner's coach since 2022, has already arrived in Dubai. He joins Simone Vagnozzi and the entire staff for this crucial preparation block.
Although nothing has been officially confirmed yet, his presence confirms what many had imagined: Cahill will continue with the Italian champion for at least another year.
