Jannik Sinner<\/a> will not play for Italy in this year\u2019s Davis Cup Finals<\/a>. The world No. 2 and four-time Grand Slam champion helped propel his nation to victory in 2023 and 2024, but has not given his availability for 2025, according to captain Filippo Volandri.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Davis Cup is and will always remain his home, and I am certain that Jannik will return to be part of the squad soon,\u201d Volandri said in a statement to Italian press. Italy\u2019s team will comprise Lorenzo Musetti, Flavio Cobolli and Matteo Berrettini for singles, with top doubles pair Andrea Vavassori and Simone Bolelli uniting.<\/p>\n

A representative for Sinner said that he was skipping the event to gain an extra week of preparation for the Australian Open, with which he will start his 2026 season. This will give Sinner close to two months off between seasons.<\/p>\n

In an interview conducted in Italian with Sky Sport, Sinner said that \u201cit is not a simple decision \u2026 The objective after Turin (the ATP Tour Finals) is to start again for 2026 on the on the right foot with Australia. One week seems like no big deal, but one week is very important.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sinner\u2019s nearest ATP Tour rival, world No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz, will compete for Spain at the event, which begins November 18 in Bologna, Italy. Alcaraz will be joined by Jaume Munar, Pedro Martinez and Marcel Granollers, with the team\u2019s fifth player yet to be picked.<\/p>\n

The remaining teams include Germany, with No. 3 Alexander Zverev in its squad, and Czechia, with a formidable lineup including Ji\u0159\u00ed Lehe\u010dka, Jakub Men\u0161\u00edk and Tom\u00e1\u0161 Mach\u00e1\u010d. Argentina, France, Belgium and Austria complete the field.<\/p>\n
