Former British No. 1 Laura Robson has credited Nick Kyrgios for “having an opinion” on Jannik Sinner. The Italian tennis star and World No. 1 has faced heavy scrutiny ever since his doping scandal surfaced in August.

However, Robson believes her opinions differ from Kyrgios’. She thinks that if the two were to face each other at the Australian Open, the 2022 Wimbledon runner-up wouldn’t be able to “walk his talk.”

It has been a strange turn of events regarding the relationship between Sinner and Kyrgios. In January, Kyrgios was asking Sinner to coach him after his Australian Open title win. A few months later, Kyrgios has been taking consistent jibes at the two-time Grand Slam champion. Many believe the Australian tennis star has crossed the line with his criticism of Sinner.

John Isner recently shared his surprise at Jannik Sinner winning the ATP Fans’ Favorite award. Speaking on the Nothing Major podcast, the former Miami Open champion admitted he didn’t expect the Italian star to claim the honor.

Sinner had a remarkable 2024, cementing himself as the top player in men’s tennis. He started the year strong, winning his first Grand Slam at the Australian Open. By September, he added another Major to his name, defeating Taylor Fritz to win the US Open.

In addition to his Grand Slam victories, Sinner won three Masters 1000 titles and finished the season by capturing the ATP Finals trophy. These achievements helped him climb to world number one, a significant milestone in his career.

Sinner also led Italy to defend their Davis Cup title, rounding off an extraordinary year. Despite his success, there is uncertainty ahead, as Sinner faces a possible ban from tennis. An appeal on the matter is expected early next year.
