One of the curious images of these first days of the Monte Carlo Masters 1000 has been seeing Jannik Sinner participate in the doubles draw alongside Zizou Bergs, with whom he achieved victory yesterday against Tomas Machac and Casper Ruud. And before playing their second match, the Belgian confessed how this union came about.
"We were training in Indian Wells. We had a good time. We chatted for a while during training, and at the end, he said to me, 'Hey, maybe you'd like to play doubles in Monte Carlo?' And I said, 'Yes, I'll think about it. But yes, probably yes.' So, yes, it's a great honor to play by his side, and we also have a great time on the court. Yesterday we got the victory, but obviously singles is important for us, and when there's time and the desire to play doubles, we play," stated the number 45 in the ATP rankings.
Wawrinka: "I am a country boy who had the big dream of becoming a professional tennis player. I have always tried to push beyond my limits without setting barriers with the goal of always improving myself" #RolexMontecarloMasters #Wawrinka
