The defeat of Jannik Sinner against Jakub Mensik in Doha has sparked worldwide reactions... and, of course, in his own country. In Italy, another legend of tennis, Adriano Panatta, has been the strongest defender of the San Candido native. "Is Sinner in crisis? Who says that? He lost two matches, one with Djokovic who is a legend in our sport, and the other against a guy who at 20 years old is already #16 in the world. You can't criticize Sinner for losing two matches: in sports, you don't always win, mistakes can be made, and Jannik is not immune to them. He wins a lot and loses occasionally, and that's fine", firmly stated in remarks to La Domenica Sportiva collected by Ubitennis.
