Italian teenage sensation Jannik Sinner has been in the headlines since his breakthrough in 2020. He is already the youngest player in the top 50 of the ATP rankings and could soon make his top 10 debut if his results continue in the same vein. Sinner has always associated his hard work and ethics with his parents. But little else is known about them so let’s take a look.

Jannik Sinner’s Father – Johann Sinner

Johann Sinner is, by occupation, a chef at a restaurant in Val Pusteria, Italy. The senior Sinner has been inspirational in his son’s career. Jannik Sinner has often talked about his father’s role in shaping his career. Sinner once recalled when he was seven he didn’t touch his racquet for a year and it was his father who reignited his passion for tennis.

“My dad came and said, ‘Let’s try once more’. From that point, I really enjoyed it,” Sinner said.
