‘He Cares More About Five Euros’- Renowned ATP Coach Reveals Young Ward Jannik Sinner’s Peak Competitive Spirit With a Hysterical Example

Jannik Sinner‘s drive to reach the pinnacle of his game is apparent on the tennis court. The seventh-ranked tennis player is not only excelling athletically, but he is also committed to whatever he sets his mind to. Recently, the Italian tennis player’s coach, Darren Cahill, provided the perfect illustration to back up this notion.

While the 22-year-old is getting ready to play in the China Open, his coach opened up about the rising Italian tennis player’s strong mindset. Alongside, he also outlined a humorous event, drawing a connection between his dedication and the paycheck he receives as a tennis player.

Recently, the Australian tennis coach, in a press conference just before the China Open, talked about how the 7th-ranked tennis player’s desire to win something has impressed him immensely. Along with that, the renowned ATP coach also revealed how both of them share a competitive and friendly bond at the same time.

Cahill stated that whenever they play anything outside of tennis, like go-karts, the 2023 Wimbledon finalist has a determination to win badly. He said, “I think at times he’s more concerned with taking five Euros off me than he is about winning a $20,000 paycheque. He cares more about five Euros, winning it off me, and takes great satisfaction when he sees me taking it out of the wallet to give it to him as well.”

Further, he also joked about how he is more concerned about winning money from his coach than the big paycheck he receives after playing tennis tournaments. While the 22-year-old tennis player’s determination to reach the top 10 ATP rankings was quite evident this year, it won’t be wrong to say that winning on and off the tennis court is something he cherishes the most.

Along with that, he also highlighted a similar bet, that even the Australian coach talked about. While talking about how the 7th-ranked tennis player wants to achieve everything, he emphasized how he and Darren lost $20 to him recently while he aced them during their serve practice.

The former Italian player said, “You’ll get 20 euros if you do it on the first try, and 15 euros if you do it on the second try.” Well, Sinner, being competitive, won the challenge given in the first round, getting ready to take on tennis challenges at the China Open.
