Sinner's ex-coach in bits and pieces, refuses to comment on Italian's recent decision: ‘I don't want the nightmare…'
Jannik Sinner was not allowed to participate in professional tennis between the months of February to May due to his three-month doping ban. He returned to action in Rome 1000, and then French Open 2025, where he lost to Carlos Alcaraz in both finals. Meanwhile, he beat the Spaniard in the Wimbledon final. Italy's Jannik Sinner shows his Wimbledon trophy.(AP) Sinner was forced to fire coach and physiotherapist Umberto Ferrara and Giacomo due to their alleged responsibility in the doping case. The likes of Marco Panichi and Ulises Badio had joined Sinner's team immediately after his 2024 US Open victory. Both the physio and coach were fired by Sinner a few days before Wimbledon 2025, without the world No. 1 giving any reasons for his decisions. With the most surprising news being Sinner rehiring Ferrara as fitness coach. Ferrara will return to the Italian's side from Sesto Pusteria, since the Italian has just begun training in Ohio. The world No. 1 will not be available in Canada this month, preferring to rest up and take it easy ahead of the latter half of the season. Sinner's surprise move caused Naldi to make a statement in the famous Italian magazine 'La Repubblica.' Naldi said, "I don't want the nightmare to start again like last summer, which is why I don't want to comment on this news. This story has damaged my image; I prefer to talk about it when I am more serene. I'll tell my side of the story one day, but it's not the right time yet."

Wimbledon semi-finals Live Updates: Aryna Sabalenka vs Amanda Anisomova underway
Decent service games thus far from Anisimova and Sabalenka as both players are looking to get into their groove. Sabalenka has had her troubles with her serves in the tournament and would want to be much more clinical. The Amanda Anisomova vs Aryna Sabalenka semi-final stands at 1-1. The first semi-final between Amanda Anisimova and Aryna Sabalenka on Centre Court is underway. Sabalenka is the favourite on current form, but with a 5-3 head-to-head record over the World No.1, Anisimova will fancy her chances. Sabalenka will also look to break her semi-final jinx at the All England Club. The past favours Amanda Anisimova, who has a 5-3 lead over Aryna Sabalenka on the head-to-head count. In Grand Slams, the record is 2-2, but it's the first time they will be locking horns at Wimbledon. In their previous meeting in the Round of 16 at French Open 2025, Sabalenka beat Anisimova 7-5, 6-3. Aryna Sabalenka and Amanda Anisimova will face each other in the first semi-final of the day on Centre Court. For Sabalenka, it's her third semi-final at the All England Club. In 2021, Sabalenka lost to Karolina Pliskova while Ons Jabeur beat her in 2023. Will 2025 be third time lucky for the World No.1? As for Anisimova, she will be playing in her maiden Wimbledon semi-final. Sabalenka is the favourite, but Anisimova has the potential to spring a surprise.

‘I just cannot discount Novak Djokovic on grass': Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner sent staggering Wimbledon 2025 warning
Jun 29, 2025 04:17 PM IST All eyes will be on Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, when Wimbledon 2025 begins on Monday. The pair were up against each other in the recent French Open 2025 men's singles final, where Alcaraz came out on top in a thrilling encounter. Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner have been sent a Novak Djokovic warning. The spotlight will also be on Novak Djokovic, whose Grand Slam year includes a semi-final display in Melbourne and a quarter-final exit in Paris. Speaking ahead of Wimbledon 2025, two-time Grand Slam semi-finalist Wally Masur had a warning for Alcaraz and Sinner, urging them not to take Djokovic lightly. 'I just cannot discount Djokovic on grass. I thought he played well at the French; he played well against Sinner. He kind of rolled the dice a bit on his forehand, he played a bit bigger than he might normally. He put a lot of scoreboard pressure on Jannik. And on grass he's a little better against the field, in my opinion, just given his experience and the way he sort of understands the nature of the surface. I don't think he's too far off [the level required to win]. This surface elevates him against the field,' he said. Djokovic could possible face Sinner in the semi-finals and then Alcaraz in the title clash. Even he knows that this tournament could be his best chance to win a record 25th Grand Slam title. 'I would probably agree that Wimbledon could be the best chance because of the results I had, because of how I feel, how I play in Wimbledon, just getting that extra push mentally and motivation to perform the best tennis at the highest level,' he said. Djokovic has clinched seven Wimbledon titles, and only Roger Federer (eight) has won the title more than him in the Open Era. The former player has also won 105 singles matches in Wimbledon, which is the most in the Open Era.
