Janni Sinner won't be playing another game in 2026.
Italian tennis player Jannik Sinner will not play another game until 2027 because of his right knee injury, he announced on Tuesday.
Sinner, number one in the world rankings, has not played an official game since July 12, when he won the Wimbledon final: "The doctors and I have decided that I need knee treatment, so the 2026 season is officially over for me," he said.
These last few years, especially the end of Turin (that is, the ATP Finals), have given me very nice feelings and emotions, but this year will be very different, he adds. Sinner explains that he has to think about the long term in his career and that he will do everything he can to get back 100%.
In the race for the first place in the world ranking, the absence of the Italian could lead to consequences, as the German Alexander Zverev could take that first place if he got the points he needed.
