Australian Open champion Jannik Sinner expressed uncertainty about his participation in the Miami Open following an injury sustained during his loss to Carlos Alcaraz in Indian Wells last Saturday. However, despite the setback, the world No. 3 appears poised to compete in Florida.
Sinner injured his elbow in a fall during his intense match against Alcaraz and was seen tending to his calf in what marked his first defeat of 2024.
Acknowledging the toll sports take on the body, Sinner commented, “I feel a bit of everything, but it’s normal. You have to accept this. I had some minor issues, but it was manageable until the third set.
