Hey there, fellow tennis enthusiasts It’s your girl Mia Johnson-Carter here, living the dream in Miami. Today, I’m super excited to share some breaking news from the world of tennis. Jannik Sinner, the World No.1 and reigning US Open and Australian Open champion, has officially withdrawn from the Rolex Paris Masters due to a virus.
Sinner expressed his disappointment in a statement, saying he had come to Paris early to prepare but felt sick upon arrival. He mentioned that he has a virus at the moment which will pass in the next two or three days but isn’t ready to compete body-wise. This withdrawal comes just nine days after he defeated rival Carlos Alcaraz in the final of the Six Kings Slam exhibition in Riyadh, collecting a tennis-record $6 million champion’s check.
This news is particularly significant as it follows the withdrawal of reigning Paris champion Novak Djokovic from the same tournament. The Rolex Paris Masters is the ninth and final ATP Masters 1000 event of the season, making it a crucial stop for top players before the end-of-year championships.
