The former world No.1 developed new weapons even after he passed the age of 30, and this attitude allowed him to beat even opponents much younger than him.<\/p>\n<h2>Panichi on Djokovic and Sinner<\/h2>\n<p>Well-known fitness coach Marco Panichi has had the opportunity to work with Nole for several years, while he now works with world No. 1 Jannik Sinner. Panichi joined the Italian ace&#8217;s team after the latter was forced to fire Umberto Ferrara and Giacomo Naldi because of the doping case.<\/p>\n<p>On the latest edition of the &#8216;Tressessanta&#8217; podcast hosted by Virginia Gambardella, Marco revealed what a legend like Djokovic and a young champion like Sinner have in common: \u201cNole loves tennis madly and is focused on that for 24 hours a day. Jannik is the same, although they have two very different personalities.<\/p>\n<p>Sinner is also very competitive during practice sessions and likes to take care of every little detail, but at the same time he has fun. Great champions never stop having fun playing tennis.<br \/>\nIf there is no pleasure in competing, it is very hard.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Many fans and insiders believe Sinner is a true\u00a0heir to Djokovic, having some very similar skills to the 24-time Grand Slam champion. The current No. 1 admitted that he is flattered by such a comparison, having no fear of living with the pressure.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/header>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2025-03-25 02:35:27 UTC<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":35762,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-35761","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tennis"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 -
