It’s now time for the clay court season, with the Monte Carlo Masters already begun. Jannik Sinner, who has been based in Monaco from the time he was 18 years old, was welcomed by a huge crowd waiting to get their stuff autographed. Who says the Italian player is not popular?

The official X handle of the ongoing tournament recently shared a video of him entering the base. The post’s caption, “Jan the Man is quite popular around these parts,” clearly explained the sight, giving Sinner fans a new level of confidence. Having witnessed such an adorable moment, the Italian fans couldn’t hold themselves from slamming those who said that Sinner’s presence was ‘non-charismatic’.

A fan came forward to throw a taunt on the people who supported the criticizing statement, saying, “never seen some of your supposedly “charismatic” bois treated this way”.

Another fan, targeting to slam the haters with a bold comment, quoted the fact that for a player who according to them lacked charisma, “there sure are a lot of people and children that seem to think otherwise”.

Another simply asked the haters to look at the crowd’s presence with a simple reminder, quoting, “No charisma” which the accompanying clip more than disproved.

The series of comments targeted to praise Sinner continued as a fan declared the fact Sinner is “a superstar now” especially given the flurry of titles this year.

Another fan, comparing Sinner’s growing popularity with the late royal princess Diana, wrote, “welcome back princess Diana”

With these and several other similar comments on the same note, the fans not only compelled the haters to rethink their criticism but also expressed their excitement about the immense love that the Italian champ has built in the hearts of the fans in Monaco.

Along with that, Sinner also explained the importance of this tournament to him. “I like this tournament, I live here so I train frequently at the club. There are a lot of Italians in the crowd,” he added.
