Overview

  • Jannik Sinner has removed fitness coach Marco Panichi and physiotherapist Ulises Badio from his team less than ten months after hiring them.
  • Sinner enters Wimbledon after losses at Roland Garros and the Halle Open, aiming for his first grass-court Grand Slam title.
  • Panichi and Badio previously served in Novak Djokovic’s camp, supporting his fitness and recovery from 2017 to 2024.
  • Sinner overcame a three-month suspension in early 2025 after the ITIA ruled his March 2024 positive test was due to accidental contamination.
  • Longtime coach Darren Cahill is set to retire at the end of the season, prompting another reshuffle in Sinner’s support team.
