Jannik Sinner suffers Roland Garros loss after physical trouble and faces CONI slip at Wimbledon ceremony

World No. 1 Jannik Sinner was defeated by Argentina’s Juan Manuel Cerundolo in the fifth set of their Roland Garros match after suffering a physical problem that halted his momentum while leading two sets and 4‑0 in the third. The Italian champion was unable to maintain his level, prompting a comeback that saw Cerundolo overturn the lead.

A separate incident occurred at Wimbledon, where Sinner, fresh off his second title, was photographed with his team. CONI president Luciano Buonfiglio mistimed his approach and was asked to step aside, highlighting a protocol gaffe during the post‑match ceremony.
