Overview
- Sinner beat Britain’s Cameron Norrie 6-3, 6-3 in a non-ranking Giorgio Armani Tennis Classic exhibition at Hurlingham on June 24, using the match to regain rhythm on grass.
- Reports say detailed medical examinations at Milan’s San Raffaele hospital found no underlying pathology after the Roland Garros collapse, and Sinner resumed training in Monte Carlo and London.
- The Wimbledon draw on June 26 placed Sinner to open Centre Court on Monday, June 29 against Miomir Kecmanovic, preserving the tradition that the defending champion starts the tournament.
- With London temperatures unusually high, Sinner’s team tested a refrigerated cooling vest in training to reduce overheating risk and to influence in-match recovery and scheduling choices.
- The draw puts Novak Djokovic in Sinner’s half, making a possible semifinal clash a storyline to watch, while Alexander Zverev is in the opposite half and could meet Sinner only in the final; Carlos Alcaraz remains absent with a wrist issue, which shifts pre-tournament expectations.
