The idea of such a thing initially came to the minds of these Jannik Sinner fans when they saw him eating carrots instead of the more common banana during a changeover at a tournament in Viena in 2019. His red-orange hair color added a bit more to the creation of the ‘Carota’ i.e. the Italian word for carrot. The Carota Boys are a group of Jannik Sinner fans who travel all around the world in carrot costumes to cheer for their favorite player.

Speaking about the group of six friends, Jannik Sinner once stated, “They’re almost more famous than I am. I got the names but I still got a little bit confused, because they have these good-looking costumes with the Carota.” He said it’s a bit “funny“, but it’s “great” to have such a dedicated fan club and he’s very much happy to see them grow.
