Jannik Sinner confirmed that he recently fired two members of his team — fitness coach Marco Panichi and physiotherapist Ulises Badio, who themselves were replacements for people involved in the player's doping case — but declined Saturday to explain the reason for the change ahead of Wimbledon.

As fans and tennis enthusiasts collectively hope for a Wimbledon final between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, Sinner's team will look a bit different compared to the classic men's singles final at Roland Garros last month where the 23-year-old Italian was defeated after he led two sets to zero.

Jannik Sinner has claimed there was “nothing major” behind his decision to axe two key team members ahead of Wimbledon. Physiotherapist Ulises Badio and fitness coach Marco Panichi, who both previously worked with Novak Djokovic, departed the world No.1’s camp days before he headed to SW19.
