I feel confident and that\u2019s exactly what we did also after London.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI took my time off but then when I came back I was working very very hard. We had very very long days at the tennis club with the physical training, tennis and physio and everything, there was so long days.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know, you wake up early and you go to sleep actually quite late and I take my confidence from there, not from tournaments played or matches played.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOf course, if I would lose first round first round second round then I would change. I would play\u2026 or at couple of tournaments.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut at the moment everything is going in the right direction in the terms of preparation for the matches.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jannik Sinner\u2019s impressive record against top 20 players<\/p>\n<p>In what seems to be a daily event, Jannik Sinner made more history by defeating Daniel Galan.<\/p>\n<p>As per OptaAce, Jannik Sinner has won 73 matches and lost just two since winning his maiden Masters 1000 title at the 2023 Canadian Open.<\/p>\n<p>His only two losses have come against Dusan Lajovic at the 2023 Cincinnati Open and Alexander Bublik at the 2025 Halle Open.<\/p>\n<p>The Italian will face 30th seed Gabriel Diallo in the third round, <a href=\"https:\/\/tennishead.net\/what-taylor-fritz-said-about-ben-sheltons-next-opponent-in-washington-after-knocking-him-out-of-wimbledon\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">who forced Taylor Fritz to play \u2018near-perfect\u2019<\/a> in their Wimbledon second-round clash.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jannik Sinner\u2019s 2025 campaign has been a cacophony of peaks and troughs after contrasting fortunes at the Grand&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":137110,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[48],"tags":[4412,67759,1824,62,1464,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-137109","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tennis","8":"tag-atp-tennis-players","9":"tag-cincinnati-open","10":"tag-jannik-sinner","11":"tag-sports","12":"tag-tennis","13":"tag-united-states","14":"tag-unitedstates","15":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115010533045049966","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/137109","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=137109"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/137109\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/137110"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=137109"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=137109"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=137109"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
