Panichi Says Contract Bars Detail on Sinner Split, Lauds Work During Suspension

The former trainer calls Sinner’s three-month clostebol suspension a professionally rewarding stretch.

Overview

  • In a new interview reported by Italian outlets, Marco Panichi says contractual obligations prevent him from discussing his work relationship with Jannik Sinner.
  • Panichi describes the three-month suspension period as one of the most positive phases of his career, citing intensive training carried out with mutual respect.
  • The partnership with Sinner and physiotherapist Ulises Badio ended in late June 2025 just before Wimbledon after less than a year, and Sinner went on to win the tournament.
  • He says Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz possess an extra gear yet must remain at peak condition every day to stay ahead, both physically and mentally.
  • Panichi points to seven seasons alongside Novak Djokovic as formative for discipline and attention to detail, and he now collaborates with Holger Rune.
