Losing is healthy, especially when you've almost forgotten how to do it against an opponent other than Alcaraz. No one expected that Jannik Sinner would succumb so early in the ATP 500 Halle 2025, but the Italian doesn't seem very affected by a stumble that means losing 450 points in his ATP ranking and having time to rest and train for Wimbledon 2025.

It had been a long time since Jannik Sinner had shown some vulnerability against a player who wasn't named Carlos Alcaraz. It had to be Alexander Bublik who broke the Italian's winning streak and cast a shadow of uncertainty on his aspirations in this grass court swing... or did he? Losing in the ATP 500 Halle 2025 is no drama for the world number 1, who faced the media aware that these things have happened, happen, and will always happen.

- Sinner believes that taking a few days off before Wimbledon will do him good

"I had my chances to win the match. In the second set, he left me little room with his serve, but in the third, I had situations that could have tipped the match in my favor. I felt that everything was going to be decided in two or three points. I tried everything, but it couldn't be, he was better in the key moments. The truth is that after the defeat in Paris, it hasn't been easy to compete here. I am relatively satisfied to have been able to play two matches on grass before Wimbledon," he said.

The most positive aspect of this defeat is that the Italian will have a few days to recharge before starting to train for Wimbledon 2025, his great aspiration. "It's time to take a break, I'm going to recover mentally and physically. I need some time for that and I think a break will be good for me. Mentally, I've been feeling good, but I'm a bit tired physically. Not every day is the same, we have to accept it and that's it," explained Jannik Sinner, who will return full of motivation to the London Grand Slam.
