Sinner opted not to travel to Tokyo for the Olympics as he wanted to focus on developing his game. He was criticized by a large section of the tennis community, including Fabio Fognini and former Roland Garros champion Adriano Panatta, for skipping such an important event.

However, according to Piatti, Sinner had to give the Games a miss in order to work on his serve. The coach also highlighted that most people took aim at the young Italian without knowing all the details.

Piatti, who has previously coached the likes of Novak Djokovic and Maria Sharapova, also spoke about Sinner’s 2021 season. According to the coach, Sinner’s most important lessons came from the losses he suffered.
