“No excuses”. Andre Agassi doesn’t beat around the bush and, after the collapse of Jannik Sinner at the Roland Garros, raises the bar of criticism. The former world number one, with eight Slams in his career, comments without filters on the early elimination of the Italian against Juan Manuel Cerúndolo, which came after a match that seemed already decided but suddenly fizzled out at 5-1 for Jannik in the third set, after the 24-year-old South Tyrolean had easily won the first two.

Sinner was ahead, had the match in hand, then he literally stopped. And for Agassi, this is the point: it cannot happen to the world number one. “Sinner’s elimination was a huge thing. I don’t know if it has been highlighted enough — he said on live television, almost surprised — I had a ‘physical clock’, I knew it. About four hours. If the conditions were tough, even less, if they were perfect, a bit more, but always around there.” Then the direct comparison with Sinner becomes inevitable: “Last year here he played five and a half hours in the final, this year after an hour and forty-five he was already at his limit — he adds — It’s not the form, it’s the preparation. They are two different things”.

Agassi clarifies that he does not want to question the Italian tennis player’s commitment, but points to something else: “I’m not saying he doesn’t work hard — he says again — Today everything is scientific, there are huge staffs, doctors, trainers. But if you repeat the same things and get opposite results, something needs to be changed.” And he insists again: “Perhaps the staff needs to be reviewed, perhaps hydration, perhaps load management — he concludes — But one thing is clear, the best player in the world cannot fizzle out like this in such a short time”.
