Wimbledon: Sinner Scrubs Training Session
Rome: World number one and top seed Jannik Sinner on Tuesday canceled a booked training session at Wimbledon ahead of his quarterfinal against No. 19 seed Ben Shelton of the USA. This decision has spurred speculation that an elbow issue he picked up in his recent match might be more serious than initially thought.
According to Ansa News Agency, the 23-year-old three-time Grand Slam winner had a scan on the elbow on Tuesday, but the results have not yet been disclosed. Sinner’s concerns about his elbow arose following his match against Bulgarian veteran Grigor Dimitrov in the last 16, where Dimitrov retired hurt at 2-2 in the third set after taking the first two sets with impressive play.
Sinner’s decision to cancel his training session has raised questions about his readiness to face Shelton on Wednesday. Fans and analysts are eagerly awaiting further updates on his condition as the tournament progresses.
