The Australian Open is just around the corner, and Jannik Sinner is geared up to face this tournament. He himself affirmed this in the press conference of Media Day on the eve of the inauguration of the competition that will be held at Melbourne Park: "I feel ready to do well in Melbourne". The debut of the South Tyrolean will be on Sunday night at 2 Italian time on the Rod Laver Arena court, facing Van de Zandschulp for the first time. "I came here quite early, a week ago, the weather is nice, it's warm. I played a couple of exhibition matches at Kooyong and here every day the feeling with the court improves". So said the 2001-born tennis player, who continued: "Last year the season ended very late, after the Davis Cup I had only one week off before starting the preparation, I wanted to start the off-season as soon as possible, it was important for me and my body".

The strategy

Jannik also revealed the strategy to prepare this tournament "We tried to understand this year if arriving at the Australian Open without playing official matches can be an option also for the next years, if it helps me or not. On Sunday we will have all the answers, but I have confidence. I feel ready to show good tennis. With my team we have a lot of fun. If we all lived in the same house, we could stay there for a long time because we have no problems".
