Jannik Sinner is currently enjoying his first Grand Slam title at the Australian Open, but the Italian admitted the journey is “just beginning”.

He became the first Italian to win the Australian Open singles title and was asked by the home media if the win felt like he had imagined, “ Yes and no. ” I answered. Yes, there are feelings that are difficult to express in words. No, because there are emotions that you can’t imagine unless you actually feel them.
“When I won the last point, I was lying on the field looking at the sky. I wasn’t thinking about the trophy and it was a tough situation but I managed to get out of it, so I thought, “Today, I thought he played a great game.” After all, that was the best thing about today. ”
Despite all of Sinner’s success in recent months, the world number four is still thinking about areas where he can improve his game. “Winning this trophy means a lot to me and makes me think about all the hard work that goes into it. But as we speak now, things have calmed down a lot, but there’s still a lot of work to do. I know that. I need to work at the gym to get stronger.”
The 22-year-old continued: “I think I’ve done a good job mentally in this tournament, but there are still some things I can improve on.” In other words, the job isn’t done yet, or rather it’s over. That’s what I’m doing. is just beginning.
“I have to prepare for an opponent who is starting to understand my game and how to play against me.” To be honest, he (Medvedev) kicked my ass today in the first two sets. So I have to prepare. ”
Never, stop, fighting!

Sinner missed next week’s tournament in Marseille, but is scheduled to return for the ATP 500 indoor hard court tournament in Rotterdam starting Monday, February 12th.
In the baseline…
The fact that Jannik Sinner is talking about areas where he can improve his game after the biggest win of his career to date shows the maturity of the 22-year-old player. To win the title in Melbourne, Sinner will need to beat three top five players in a row, including the greatest men’s champion in Australian Open history, and come back from a crushing defeat to face Daniil Medvedev in his first Grand Slam final was there. The improvement Sinner has made in his past year has been amazing. That’s why it’s so scary to hear him talk about further improvements.
