I\u2019ve played a lot. It has been very long days for me. But look, I\u2019m happy how I handled the situation, and I try to keep going.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He returned to the same subject in Italian, in response to a question about the records he had just claimed. There, he explicitly oriented toward Roland-Garros rather than Rome.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll have a few extra days to recover for Paris \u2014 which, I\u2019ll say it again, is my objective for the year. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m happy. But for the moment, I\u2019m concentrating on tomorrow. It\u2019s an important match \u2014 one where I have to recover physically overnight,\u201d Sinner said in Italian. \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennismajors.com\/atp\/sleep-adrenaline-and-the-long-march-to-roland-garros-inside-jannik-sinners-fatigue-management-849660.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">I can feel I\u2019ve played a lot<\/a>, and so I need to recover as much as possible, because Friday night will be a very difficult match. Long exchanges, physically it will be tough. Playing in the evening is always more physical.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sinner plays either Daniil Medvedev or Martin Landaluce on Friday, and either way, he can expect a lot of balls coming back. At 34-2 in 2026 across 36 matches, the world No. 1 has plenty of tennis still in his racket.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt this point, it\u2019s a victory for me if I win. And it\u2019s also fine if it goes badly, because I\u2019ll have a few extra days to recover for Paris \u2014 which, I\u2019ll say it again, is my objective for the year. We\u2019ll see how it goes.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jannik Sinner has broken Novak Djokovic\u2019s all-time record for consecutive ATP Masters 1000 wins, beating Andrey Rublev 6-2,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":674636,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[565],"tags":[64,63,85,747],"class_list":["post-674635","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tennis","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-sports","tag-tennis"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/674635","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=674635"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/674635\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/674636"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=674635"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=674635"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=674635"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
