Sinner already thinking about the Nº1: "I know the scenarios, but on clay it will be completely different"

The early defeat of Carlos Alcaraz at the Miami Open 2026 has fueled Jannik Sinner's ambition to reclaim the world No. 1 in the upcoming tournaments. A real possibility considering he doesn't defend any points until mid-May, so he can only gain during this stretch of the season. At the Tennis Channel table, we heard the Italian discussing this opportunity.

"I know all the scenarios, but on clay, it will be completely different. It depends on how you start, on how you feel on that surface, although everything that comes is positive. Even if I lose early, the points will come, I have nothing to defend. I play to be the best version of myself, the ranking is just a consequence of how I play," assessed the San Candido native.
