In the trophy ceremony, Jannik Sinner revealed more about his condition, saying that he has not been feeling well since yesterday but came out because he wanted to give the audience a match to watch, albeit a short one.
“I’m super sorry to disappoint you," Sinner said. "Yesterday I didn’t feel great. I hoped I would be better but I came out worse. I couldn’t handle more. I’m really, really sorry.”
The match lasted for 20 minutes and ended with Carlos Alcaraz clinching the title 5-0 in the first set.
No one seemed more upset with Jannik Sinner's injury than his great rival and friend, Carlos Alcaraz. As the World No 1 sat on the bench in tears after the game ended short, Alcaraz was the first person to walk over to his side and console him. He even paid a touching tribute by writing 'Sorry Jannik' on the camera.
