World No. 1 men’s tennis player Jannik Sinner has made the difficult decision to withdraw from the upcoming Olympic Games. The Italian athlete cited illness as the reason for his withdrawal, revealing that he is currently recovering from tonsillitis. Sinner shared that his doctor advised him against participating in the tennis competition at Roland Garros, leading to his unfortunate absence from the prestigious event.
Expressing his disappointment, the 22-year-old tennis star conveyed his best wishes to his fellow Italian athletes who will be competing in the Olympics. Sinner's absence from the Games comes after his recent participation in Wimbledon, where he faced a tough defeat in the quarterfinals against Russian player Daniil Medvedev.
