US Open 2023: Jannik Sinners "Easy come, easy go".

The number 6 in the tennis world rankings, Jannik Sinner, could already imagine that it wouldn't be easy in the round of 16 against the German Alexander Zverev, current number 12 in the world, but with such extreme ups and downs he really didn't have to calculate. The previous match against the Swiss veteran Stanislas Wawrinka was really demanding. At first he was sure of victory, then he really came into the world when Wawrinka presented him in the second set as a tennis youngster in front of the whole world, and then with all his strength and the last of his energy struggled to win against the already 38-year-old Swiss tennis star bring about. So now it was done. The number 6 had reached the final rounds or the 4th round and could dream of reaching the final, but things turned out differently than hoped. He already felt in the first set that the match against the German would not go as smoothly as hoped, when Zverev took the first set 6: 4 and showed him who is boss in the ring. Sinner pulled himself together and hit back, winning the second set. Hope for a happy ending was back. But with the next set loss, this was lost again. And again, Sinner had to bundle all his strengths to stand up to the German. With 6:4, Sinner won the fourth set and thus managed to equalize the set. Now the hope for a happy ending was back, but the hope didn't last long, because after 4 hours and 41 minutes Alexander Zverev also won the fifth set and thus the match. After the rollercoaster of emotions, Jannik Sinner was simply at the end. He had fought so hard and was not rewarded in the end. Victory and defeat and thus joy and sadness are so close together in sport. Heads up!
