Many haters (idiots), especially in Italy, have unfairly attacked the ATP No.1, claiming that Jannik preferred to go on holiday with Anna Kalinskaya, rather than focus on Paris Olympics
In the last few hours, an absurd social pillory has been created against Jannik Sinner, guilty – for some idiot haters – of preferring personal commitments to sports. For others, he even preferred to enjoy the holidays with his partner Anna Kalinskaya, rather than focus on Paris Olympics.
While in Italy many have supported this thesis, in Russia they do not share the same opinion. Former tennis player Svetlana Kuznetsova, winner of Roland Garros in 2009, talked about the issue, underlining that it was obvious that the haters would have blamed Kalinskaya, for Jannik’s withdrawal from Olympics.
“I imagined it, it was obvious that they would blame Anna for Sinner’s refusal and the failure to participate in the Paris Olympic Games. The girlfriends of famous players are in the spotlight more time. After the victory at Wimbledon, Alcaraz went to Ibiza with friends drinking and having fun, Jannik was in Sardinia with his girlfriend in more calm conditions and got sick. These things happen, why do people care where a person spends their holidays? Without the victory at Wimbledon would people criticize Alcaraz for Ibiza? Every athlete is free to choose how to spend their holidays and free time,” she explained.
Kuznetsova then gave another solid example of a tennis player who is receiving criticism for his relationship and we are talking about the Badosa – Tsitsipas couple: “She is also constantly criticized for Tsitsipas’ decline and here we also have the aggravating factor that Sinner is number one in the world. The serial haters will always blame her for his defeats and all this makes no sense.”
The Olympic Games officially begin and there is great anticipation and curiosity for the tennis players who will take to the court in Paris. The one who will not be there and is causing a lot of discussion is the number 1 in the world, who has been struggling with tonsillitis for a few days now.
