Overview

  • Fitness coach Marco Panichi and physiotherapist Ulises Badio, who joined Sinner’s camp in September 2024, parted ways with the world No. 1 on June 27 and 28.
  • Sinner said the exits were amicable and insisted the change won’t affect his physical or mental readiness for his first Wimbledon campaign.
  • No detailed explanation has been provided by Sinner or his camp and no replacements have been named as of the tournament’s start.
  • His support crew for Wimbledon now comprises longtime coaches Simone Vagnozzi and Darren Cahill alongside osteopath Andrea Cipolla.
  • The move follows earlier staff reshuffles prompted by his March 2024 clostebol suspension as Sinner continues to prioritize trust and harmony in his camp.
