Against a background of fatigue, his health did not manifest itself in the best way, he did not have a fighting physical form that would be enough from the beginning to the end of the match. It was difficult for Daniil, and the age difference also had an effect, it was noticeable. In addition, Sinner plays at home, he has moral support, his own circle of friends. Daniil is participating in the final phase for the fifth year in a row, that’s a good indicator. He played well in the group and reached the semi-finals. He did everything he could. Moreover, he has already won the final phase. Let’s not demand much from him; next year he will definitely try to win again,” Yanchuk told .
