"We will also play doubles with Jannik," announces Sonego ahead of Halle

Present in Halle, Sonego gave an interview to Sky Sport. A training partner of world No. 1 Sinner, the Italian revealed that he will also team up with him for doubles:

"I trained with Jannik, and we also plan to play doubles together. It’s always nice to spend time with him: he helps me grow, improves my game, and we have fun together. I bring a bit of lightness and enjoyment to the court during the day. He’s great because he can give me advice.

I can also compare myself to him in terms of tennis, and that’s something I really need. I absolutely must learn certain things from the world No. 1 that I can then bring to the court."

In singles, both players will face local opponents. Sonego will play Struff, and Sinner will take on Hanfmann.
