NEW YORK – The ice on his left wrist was just a precaution: the fall, during the semi-final against Draper, did not cause any consequences. Jannik Sinner (not even in that specific exchange, to be honest: the Italian had managed to get back on his feet by closing the set with a sensational forehand in response to a smash from the British player, to the ovation of the crowd).
The cold treatment was only useful in the post match, so much so that yesterday the Italian had already done the preparatory exercises for tonight’s final without any bandages, or any aid. Paradoxically he was lucky enough to finish his hour of “practise”, and then be forced into an unexpected final sprint, due to a splash of water that fell on New York, and Sinner transformed himself into Usain Bolt and headed for the locker rooms to avoid arriving soaked.
