Grigor Dimitrov Joins John McEnroe’s Brother in Snubbing Novak Djokovic for Jannik Sinner After His Miami Triumph

Putting “so many matches back to back with the same level” Jannik Sinner has once again sparked the ‘best tennis player’ controversy. Although it’s not even halfway to the 2024 tennis season, the Miami Open 2024 winner is seen to be one of the toughest competitors receiving praise from iconic tennis players. Grigor Dimitrov, recently opened the best player comment for the Italian tennis player just like John McEnroe’s brother did, with a similar stand of comment.

However, on the other hand, the Italian’s rising up to the frame might be a little setback for the current world number one, Novak Djokovic. Let’s take a look at what the 32-year-old said about Sinner in the press conference while he praised his competitiveness on the court.

Choosing Sinner as the “best player” Dimitrov acknowledged that “all credit goes to him”

After Patrick McEnroe, Grigor Dimitrov has come out to support Sinner as he stated, “I don’t feel the need to compare him to any other player or any player, for that matter. I think it’s just clearly that’s his time of, you know, like, prime tennis that he’s playing. Can he play any better? I don’t know. He’s the one to show that. But at the moment that he’s been able to really put so many matches back to back with the same level, so all credit goes to him. And he is the best player right now in the world.” 

 Not only that, he also highlighted that the prime tennis he is currently playing is at its best, something that can literally take center stage in the tennis world. In addition, he also praised Sinner, explaining how the current tennis he is playing is just outstanding and he has nothing more to say than praise his skills, determination, and dedication on the court.

Looking into the way the 24-time Grand Slam champion was always appreciated for his outstanding game, an Italian rising tennis sensation might have created a little bit of a problem for him. Following that, let’s dwell on what McEnroe said, about the 22-year-old tennis player in a similar context.

The Grand Slam winner has taken the lead after winning the Miami Open, possibly overshadowing many other well-known athletes. Even a former American tennis player emphasized the 22-year-old’s significance over the last six months on Twitter.

He said, “In the last 6 months….@janniksin is the best player on the planet……and it’s not close.” There is no doubt about Sinner’s present place in the tennis world, as this statement not only highlights his unrivaled dominance on the court but also commemorates his prowess.
