Three weeks prior, Sinner retired in the Shanghai second round due to cramp. He left the court limping while grimacing in pain. Now, the second seed is ready to kickstart his fourth appearance at the Paris ATP Masters 1000.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI&#8217;m not worried physically,\u201d Sinner said in a press conference Tuesday. \u201cI feel in a good shape also tennis-wise. So I hope for a good start, and then we see how it goes. The [Vienna] final was very physical. The body feels good now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A 22-time tour-level titlist with a growing list of records, Sinner has the chance to add a new milestone this week. The Italian is aiming for his first trophy at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atptour.com\/en\/tournaments\/paris\/352\/overview\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Rolex Paris Masters<\/a>. Across his previous three showings, Sinner has just one match win. He missed last year\u2019s edition due to sickness.<\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s tournament marks a new chapter, having relocated to Europe\u2019s largest indoor sports venue, La D\u00e9fense Arena. Sinner offered thoughtful insight on the move, highlighting several aspects he appreciates about the new setting.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt&#8217;s great to see so many changes,\u201d said Sinner, who will begin his tournament Wednesday against Belgian <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atptour.com\/en\/players\/zizou-bergs\/bu13\/overview\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Zizou Bergs<\/a>. \u201cI feel like it&#8217;s the second tournament we\u2019ve had this year where many, many great changes have happened \u2014 Cincinnati and here. It&#8217;s great for the sport. Having behind the scenes where we can eat, it&#8217;s much more comfortable. Bigger centre court, and also Court 1 and Court 2, great courts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOutside we have some great facilities where we can practise with a great gym and everything is set up in a perfect way. I\u2019m very happy to see these good changes. I feel like all the players, we feel better here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sinner is chasing a return to World No. 1 in the PIF ATP Rankings, which he relinquished to rival <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atptour.com\/en\/players\/carlos-alcaraz\/a0e2\/overview\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Carlos Alcaraz<\/a> after the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atptour.com\/en\/tournaments\/us-open\/560\/overview\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">US Open<\/a>. If Alcaraz does not reach the semi-finals and Sinner can lift his first ATP Masters 1000 trophy of the season, No. 1 will change hands.<\/p>\n<p>You May Also Like: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atptour.com\/en\/news\/sinner-paris-2025-world-no-1-projection\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">How Sinner can retake World No. 1 from Alcaraz in Paris<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Sinner has claimed four titles this season, earning major crowns at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atptour.com\/en\/tournaments\/australian-open\/580\/overview\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Australian Open<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atptour.com\/en\/tournaments\/wimbledon\/540\/overview\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Wimbledon<\/a>, while also winning Beijing and Vienna in the past month. Asked to reflect upon his season, Sinner began by referring to one of his main targets for 2025.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI feel like one of our goals was to try to go as deep as possible in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atptour.com\/en\/tournaments\/wimbledon\/540\/overview\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Wimbledon<\/a>, which I couldn&#8217;t have gotten a better result,\u201d said Sinner, who beat Alcaraz in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atptour.com\/en\/tournaments\/wimbledon\/540\/overview\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Wimbledon<\/a> final for his maiden title at the grass-court major. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo if you ask me [what has made me proudest], I would respond to you, \u2018Winning <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atptour.com\/en\/tournaments\/wimbledon\/540\/overview\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Wimbledon<\/a>\u2019. But at the same time, it has been an incredible season, making four Grand Slam finals. Many, many great matches I played throughout the whole season. Talking about the season in general, it has been amazing. Very, very consistent. A lot of wins. I couldn&#8217;t have asked for more.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But Sinner also acknowledged, \u201cThe season is not over yet.\u201d Boasting a 48-6 season record, according to the Infosys ATP Win\/Loss Index, he will look to improve upon that mark in a quest to capture 50 match wins for the third consecutive year. After Paris, Sinner will return to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atptour.com\/en\/tournaments\/nitto-atp-finals\/605\/overview\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Nitto ATP Finals<\/a>, where last year he won the prestigious year-end event without dropping a set.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA tournament I&#8217;m looking forward to is Turin,\u201d said Sinner, one of four singles players to already qualify for the eight-player field. \u201cLast year was an incredible run there. So we try to prepare ourself in the best possible way there. But, before that, there is an important tournament that I didn&#8217;t play last year, which is here. I never played well here. So hopefully I can change couple of things this year. Then we see how it goes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Paris Sinner shakes off cramping concerns: &#8216;Not worried physically&#8217; Italian arrives in Paris following Vienna title run October&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":230560,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[38],"tags":[101,118,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-230559","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tennis","8":"tag-sports","9":"tag-tennis","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/230559","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=230559"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/230559\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/230560"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=230559"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=230559"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=230559"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
