Jannik Sinner returns to competition this week in Rotterdam, two weeks after his Australian Open title. An opportunity for the Italian to talk about his relationship with pressure.

Sinner : "Sometimes I play doubles because you feel more pressure on serve at 40-40, than making 10 serves in the practice sessions. You have to handle this kind of situation on court.

I play good in the practice sessions, but I never play like I play in a match. Because in the match, I feel like that there is more competition and I love to compete. I like this fair play. Fair play, but also when you go against each other.

In tennis, I think that we have a very positive pressure. Because nothing can really happen. You can just lose the point. If you're a doctor for example and you have to make surgery to someone else, you have a different kind of pressure because you have a life in your hands. So tennis is just good pressure and it's healthy."
