Milan, 14 June (LaPresse) – After the historic Roland Garros final lost in five sets against Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner took some time off with his family before returning to the grass courts of Halle. "I went to visit my parents and friends. It's what I needed after a stressful tournament, it's what I like to do. Now we're here in Halle for a new tournament, new challenges, there will be difficulties because it's a new surface. But I'm very happy." Jannik Sinner spoke to Sky Sport ahead of his return to the court in Halle. It was inevitable that the conversation would turn to the final in Paris and Roger Federer's comment on social media that there were “three winners: Alcaraz, Sinner and tennis”. "The final was a positive sign for tennis as a whole, for the growth of the sport. We are athletes who give everything, it was an incredible match of the highest level. It didn't end the way we wanted, but these things happen,‘ said Sinner. ’Even the best in the world experience moments like this, it depends on how you come out of them. Of course, I see the match points I missed, but I was on the ball for five and a half hours without complaining about anything and I've never played like that on clay," he concluded.
