And once again, all eyes turn to Jannik Sinner. After the shock of his elimination at Roland Garros where he was clearly the favorite, and the way it happened, suffering a heat stroke when leading 6-3, 6-2, 5-1 against Juan Manuel Cerúndolo, the world number one will return to the stage next Monday to defend his Wimbledon champion title.

Following his early exit in Paris, the Italian sought refuge with friends and family, and shortly after, underwent medical examinations in Milan before traveling to Monte Carlo to start preparing for Wimbledon and the upcoming American hard court swing. He was seen training on cement with Holger Rune. However, he did all this quietly, and now, a week before the start of the prestigious London event, he opens up in an interview with Vogue.

Jannik Sinner feels ready for his Wimbledon title defense in 2026

"I always try to see the positive side of situations, and the good thing about exiting Roland Garros early, although I would have liked to go further, is having extra time. We've been making the most of each day, so we've had many long training sessions, and I'm very pleased with my current physical and mental state," reveals the San Candido native before aiming for his second title in London.

While he typically played at Halle before heading to the British capital in the past two years, this year, after an intense clay court swing where he won all three Masters 1000 tournaments he participated in, he decided to arrive at Wimbledon without any previous tournaments under his belt.

"I feel good. We've worked hard in recent weeks, so I'm in very good physical shape. I've played a lot in the past months, so I needed a good training period to recover, and I've bounced back well. But the most important thing for me is to be in a good mental state, and I'm very happy to be here in London. I hope to compete at the highest level."

This decision means that Sinner will make his debut on the Wimbledon Centre Court next Monday without any prior matches on such a tricky surface. However, the Italian is fully aware of this: "I approach it the same way. I always say that we don't defend, we always go all out, and I hope we succeed. I know it's a long tournament. My start will be crucial. I haven't played any matches on grass, so the first one, or the first ones, will be tough. But if I manage to get through them, I know I'll regain confidence and good feelings on grass. For now, we are trying to find our rhythm on grass, and then we'll see how the tournament unfolds," concludes a Jannik Sinner who will seek his fifth Grand Slam on the grass of London.
