Overview
- Sinner has been sidelined since winning Wimbledon on July 12 because of right-knee iliotibial-band inflammation that causes pain when he resumes playing.
- He withdrew from the ATP Finals and is now in Milan for sponsor events and focused medical checks reported on Monday, November 9.
- Valentino Rossi, who met Sinner in Milan, said the player still feels some discomfort but is working on the problem under medical supervision.
- Italian consultant Dr. Alberto Zangrillo is overseeing care in Milan and has put Sinner in contact with Professor Shoenhuber to follow the rehabilitation protocol agreed in Lyon.
- Sinner has reshuffled his coaching team by adding Magnus Norman and parting with Darren Cahill, and he is targeting the Six Kings Slam on December 27 as a tentative return date that depends on progress in recovery.
