Jannik Sinner continues to impress at Roland Garros 2025. The Italian came to the tournament with the momentum gained from reaching the final at the Rome Masters 1000, and without putting pressure on himself or setting expectations, he is now in the semifinal of a Grand Slam where he has not yet tasted victory. Following a three-month suspension due to a positive test for Clostebol in 2024, he is just two matches away from his fourth major title.

The outcomes for Jannik Sinner at Roland Garros 2025 have been nothing short of surprising. Although he dropped 12 games against Arthur Rinderknech, he only lost seven to Richard Gasquet, three to Jiri Lehecka, and eight against a seeded player like Andrey Rublev. A similar story unfolded in the quarterfinals where he conceded just six games against a tournament revelation, Alexander Bublik. Sinner, following the quarterfinals, attended a press conference

- Strong Performance on Court

"I have felt very consistent from the baseline, and I am happy about it. I enjoy playing return games and always expect exciting exchanges to happen in those points. You have to react very quickly and get into your opponent's head, which I like. Against players with a strong serve, you have to do that and precisely recognize how the points are unfolding; that's why the return comes quite naturally to me."

- Bublik's Good Form

"He was serving very well in the second set. The conditions got windier, which benefited him when serving on his favored side. His confidence increased, and he began making fewer mistakes because in the first set, he had troubles with his forehand. He started moving better and executing good drop shots; we know the talent he possesses."

- Facing Djokovic or Zverev, his Next Opponent

"I have played very intense matches with Zverev in the past; he is a very dangerous player, serves excellently, and moves perfectly. He is also ready for long matches, so I believe it will be a highly tactical encounter."

"Regarding Novak, it's a different scenario. He has shown that he is back to his peak level and playing extremely well. It will be tactical but very tough. He has a wealth of experience; 24 Grand Slams speak for themselves. Nonetheless, I didn't expect to reach the semifinals and perform this well upon my return, so I am happy with how things are going."

- Warm-up with Boisson

"I think she is exactly what France needs, something very new and special with a great mindset. She appears very calm on the court, or at least that's how it seems. I had trained with her before because we were at the same center, and I know she is happy for this opportunity. The level she displays is very high and typical of clay courts, with a lot of spin on her forehand. She deserves everything that is happening to her."
