Jannik Sinner arrived in Paris early to prepare, and was excited about facing strong players, especially Carlos Alcaraz, as he shared in a press conference 2 days ago. However, the Italian player has just had to surprisingly announce that he has to withdraw from the tournament because he is infected with an intestinal virus, which will last for the next few days, and he is not physically ready to compete.

The Paris Masters BTC posted a video of Jannik Sinner announcing his health condition on the homepage, and said that home player Arthur Cazaux would be his replacement. This is not the first time Sinner has been defeated by a virus, having health and fitness problems this year. Previously, the owner of 2 Grand Slam titles this year, Jannik Sinner, had to withdraw from the Madrid Open due to a hip injury, and withdrew from the Paris Olympics due to tonsillitis.

The world’s No. 1 tennis player will have nearly 2 weeks to rest and prepare for the important ATP Finals tournament in Turin. With Sinner’s withdrawal, Carlos Alcaraz is the leading candidate for the title at the Paris Masters.
