Cahill bids farewell to Sinner: "It has been a special honor and privilege"

Today, Jannik Sinner has announced through an emotional video that as of 2027, Darren Cahill will no longer be part of his team. This was an open secret after the arrival of Magnus Norman, as the Australian coach had been wanting to take a break since 2025, although it was said he might hold on until Roland Garros. A few minutes later, both Sinner and Cahill released a joint statement announcing the decision, and Darren had some very kind words for the Italian.

"Working with Jannik has been an honor and a special privilege. He is an incredible young man and a humble and dedicated champion of whom we are all immensely proud. Trust, honesty, and faith only work when they are mutual, and that has been one of Jannik's great strengths as an athlete. It is also the reason why coaching someone like him has been such a memorable experience. I want to thank Jannik, the entire team, and all the fans for welcoming this Australian into the wonderful Italian family. I wish the team all the success in the world in the coming years".

Sinner and Cahill, a historic duo

Sinner also left a nice quote in this note, stating that "Darren has been an incredibly important part of my journey. Alongside Simone and the entire team, we have achieved things I dreamed of since I was a child. Winning five Grand Slam titles and reaching number one in the world together are accomplishments I will always cherish, but what means just as much to me as those successes is the relationship we have built along this journey."

To conclude, the tennis player from San Candido stated that "I want to thank Darren for believing in me, for his honesty, and for his dedication. He has helped me grow both as a tennis player and as a person, and his advice will stay with me throughout my career. We have shared many special moments over the last five years, and although our professional relationship as coach and player is coming to an end, our friendship will continue". The end of a historic duo that has elevated Sinner to the next level, waiting to see how Norman will be able to take up this challenge.
