Overview
- Darren Cahill flew to Monte Carlo to meet Jannik Sinner, a visit first reported Friday, and the two are holding face‑to‑face talks to set the coaching arrangement for 2027.
- Sinner closed his 2026 season early to treat a right‑knee inflammation and the summit is pairing technical planning with medical decisions that will guide his return to sport.
- The player’s medical team is being reorganized away from J Medical toward work led by orthopaedist Herbert Schoenhuber with clinical oversight from Alberto Zangrillo.
- Options under discussion include Cahill staying through the Australian Open or Roland Garros, a managed handover while Cahill helps identify a successor, and possible participation at the late‑December Six Kings Slam if tests go well.
- Small public signals, such as Cahill’s Monte Carlo social posts and a like from Sinner, have eased split speculation but no contract renewal or final role has been announced and Cahill’s deal runs to the end of 2026.
