At the changeover, Jannik addressed the team like this. At that moment, the cameras panned to coach Darren Cahill , but judging by Sinner's expression, he was referring to the team's overall lack of participation in the match. Back on the court, the Italian closed out the match with a double 6-3. This time, he was also encouraged by the corner, with which he celebrated the victory.
