Jannik Sinner fell in the US Open final to his great rival Carlos Alcaraz. This defeat also means the Italian has lost his world number one spot in the ATP rankings to the Spaniard.

In a press conference, he revealed what he plans to do to regain his place: "I'm not saying I'm suddenly going to become left-handed, but over time, there will be changes—I don't yet know if they'll be major or minor.

I am a very consistent player, I like to play from the baseline and hit hard. I am a good tennis player, I just think I need to add something that will be decisive to improve, like in rallies.

I look forward to playing matches like this again. I'm no longer number one, so I will try to make these changes work, we'll see.

Thanks for the good words of support. And to d smith (cherrycoke) I am moved by your words and wish you had been around to experience what I'm referring to. As it is there are revolving groups of players each week. The ones in question might be moved out to another group 1 week in four. That means for 3 weeks of every 4 there is unfair play. If you are buying boosts the odds are greatly in your f...

There are a group of players who feel the need to win and spend a bunch of money to add boosts to their predictions. That is ok if they have it to spend. Many of us do not.

I feel these should have their own group(s). An extra 4-6-8 points makes a difference in a week. I don't want to play in unfair rules.
