Greg Rusedski Expresses Concern Over Sinner's US Open Chances

The well-being of Jannik Sinner is a topic of widespread speculation, with no definitive answers available. Rumors and whispers circulate about the knee injury that prevented him from competing in Cincinnati. The reality is that the Italian player has missed all North American hardcourt Masters events leading up to the US Open, a fact that will undoubtedly hinder his preparation. According to Greg Rusedski, a former world number four, Jannik's journey in New York will not be straightforward. The British tennis pundit believes Sinner's knee issue could be more severe than initially perceived.

"I won't hide that it's a worrying situation, because he usually always plays a preparatory tournament. Everyone plays in Cincinnati, then takes a week off and prepares for New York," Rusedski stated. "If he hasn't done that, it's because the knee problem is more serious than we think. Jannik will fly to New York the week before the US Open. If he doesn't arrive there, let's say by Monday at the latest, everyone will start questioning his participation," the former tennis player commented on his podcast, Off Court.
