Emma Raducanu makes worrying statement at Italian Open as star confronts fan

Jannik Sinner has admitted to doubting himself prior to returning to the court at the Italian Open.

The world No. 1 returned from his three-month suspension in style by beating Mariano Navone 6-3 6-4, in what will be a significant relief for the 23-year-old.

Speaking after his win, Sinner was asked whether he had questioned whether he would be able to hit the ground running after his ban, to which he replied: “Of course. It’s normal to have doubts. Would be strange to not have any doubts. Would sound very arrogant, no?

“I have doubts. I had doubts before going on court today. I have doubts now what’s going to happen in the next match.”
