Patrick Mouratoglou discusses Jannik Sinner’s strengths and what he does better than Novak Djokovic
Jannik Sinner‘s rise to the top of the men’s game began following wins over Novak Djokovic at the 2023 ATP Finals and Davis Cup.
He then handed the Serbian his first loss at the Australian Open since 2018 by besting him in four sets in the semi-finals. Since then the Italian has gone strength to strength and has reached a level of play very few have been able to match.
Comparisons to Djokovic began to intensify throughout the season, and now Naomi Osaka‘s coach Patrick Mouratoglou has added to the discussion by saying what Sinner does better than the 24-time Grand Slam champion.
“I think it makes sense to call him Djokovic 2.0 because movement, counterpunching, unbelievable,” the Frenchman Tennis Majors during an episode of Eye of the Coach. “Same qualities as Novak and I think he added 2.0 because he is playing faster by taking the balls earlier. He is moving up all the time.
“I think what makes Sinner very special is his ability to play at an incredibly high pace without missing. I think he is one of the guys who plays the fastest because of the way he hits the ball but also because of his movement.
