The Times of India at Wimbledon: Jannik Sinner arrived at Wimbledon with little luck.After his dramatic fall in the second round of the French Open, where he stood on the cusp of victory before melting in the heat, the 24-year-old underwent tests to understand what his body was trying to tell him. He responded by training long hours, in testing conditions and resisted the temptation to fill his schedule with sports.However, as the temperature is expected to rise above 30 ° C in the second week of the Championships, this stage – where the Sinner appeared in full force against Juan Manuel Cerúndolo, leading 6-3, 6-2, 5-1 before his power dropped alarmingly — has also opened temporary questions.Former Davis Cupper and commentator Prahlad Srinath points to Sinner’s early season, when he claimed five consecutive Masters titles between March and May.“At the end of his first match in Paris he was already looking at his box confused. He looked shaken and tired,” said Srinath.In the south-west of London, where the Sinner begins to defend his title against Miomir Kecmanovic on Monday under pleasant skies and the temperature is not expected to rise to 24 ° C, he should not have a little problem. However playing matches is a different matter from practice.“With practice you can hit 500 balls, but it’s a well-rounded drill,” said Srinath, who is a coach. “You can anticipate and control the movement. And then if someone is tired, we manage the load, power and volume. But in the game, your shots are explosive, don’t worry if it’s five balls or 500. It involves a lot of effort.”Sinner himself acknowledged the difference between education and competition. “Of course you can’t imitate 100% what you hear in the game. We changed (after Paris), I can’t say a big change. I believe in the details. We are happy at the moment with what we are doing, but the results we don’t see now. It is a long process, there is no magic”.Yash Pandey, the most successful sportsman is from India Davis Cup team, agree.The Italian, who has never won a game over three hours and 50 minutes and has a record of 6-12 in five games, will be forced to take a more visible approach if he is to enter the tournament.“This will be the way for him,” Pandey said, adding that despite concerns about the Italian, he remains a favourite. “He also knows that the only way he’s going to lose is because of his fitness. I don’t see anyone else right now, unless someone comes out really strong one day. It could happen, but Sinner is the player.”Circular discussion no. 1s and their weakness does not end with the Sinner. Aryna Sabalenka’s stunning fall from her Roland Garros quarter-final win shows that even the strongest of players can be working closer to the edge than it seems, even when they have mastered the game. While the Sinner’s story is physical, Sabalenka seems more emotional.The 28-year-old revealed that, after Roland Garros, he also spoke to a psychologist he worked with before, feeling it was the right part at this point in his season.“I feel like I need someone to take all my thoughts out to clear my head before a big race,” he said. “With my team, we talk a lot. Sometimes you have things you don’t want to throw at your team. It’s very important to have someone you can talk to and feel safe.”
