Sinner blew the field away and lost just one set from his seven matches at the tournament. In the final, he thrashed Alexander Zverev 6-3, 7-6, 6-3 to leave the German without a major title to his name.
Sinner broke records galore during the final of the Australian Open. As the runaway leader at the summit of the ATP World Rankings, the 23-year-old is very much the player to beat in today’s game.
Not only was it a proud moment for Sinner but also for his coaches Darren Cahill and Simone Vagnozzi who have done a truly tremendous job when it comes to making Sinner the dominant force that he is at present.
With three Grand Slam titles to his name at 23, Sinner is drawing comparisons to Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal with the current world number one now very much the top man in today’s game.
Vagnozzi has now been quizzed on this notion and he’s given his reaction as to whether or not he should get those comparisons.
He said during his press conference: “You know, he’s still young. He have already won three tournaments. You never know what’s happen in the future, but for sure he is the guy that tries to improve every day, and going on court, on practice, and try to put new things on his game, try to improve physically.
“So I think it’s one of the guys that can reach the top level. I mean, when we speak about top level, we think about Novak, about Roger or Rafa.
“We are still long way, but for sure is one of the guy that can try to reach this kind of player.”
