Tennis fans told they ‘should be concerned’ about Jannik Sinner after his withdrawals since Wimbledon

World number one Jannik Sinner has been absent from professional tennis since his Wimbledon victory in July due to a persistent knee injury. This physical setback has forced the Italian to withdraw from five major tournaments, including the US Open and the Shanghai Masters.

Former champion Adriano Panatta has publicly expressed worry regarding the severity of the situation, noting the lack of clarity surrounding the medical diagnosis. Sinner currently holds 11,000 points, but his top ranking is under threat from Alexander Zverev, who has accumulated 9,720 points.

The Italian is tentatively scheduled to participate in the Six Kings Slam exhibition in Saudi Arabia, though his status remains uncertain. Following that event, he faces a challenging schedule of title defenses in Vienna, Paris, and the ATP Finals.
