Miami, Mar. 19 (LaPresse) – "This is a good moment for me. We try to give our best and keep pushing. I haven’t had much time to adapt yet because of the rain, but I’m happy to be back in Miami. This has always been an important tournament for me; I missed it last year," said Jannik Sinner on the eve of the Miami Masters 1000, the second and final leg of the Sunshine Double. This was reported by SuperTennis.
"These hard-court tournaments are important for me, especially at the start of the season. They are also the last ones before clay, where you never know how things will go," Sinner added, coming off his victory at Indian Wells. "I wanted to prove to myself that I could go far there," said the world number two. "I’m very satisfied with how I served there, but it’s something we are working on a lot these days," Sinner explained, referring again to Indian Wells. "It’s the only shot we do completely on our own. We dedicate many hours and a lot of attention to every training session to make it as precise as possible. During matches, I also felt that my serve helped me in difficult moments."
But now, he noted, "we’re here in Miami and trying to stay as focused as possible. There are still many areas where we can improve. Even talking about the serve, I think we can still get better. We analyze the return a lot as well, and there’s definitely room for growth. From the baseline, there are some tactical aspects against certain players that we can improve. There are always small details that can make you a better tennis player, and in the end, that’s the most important thing."
