Janik Siner started and ended the year with a Grand Slam trophy (he won the Australian Open and the US Open) and delighted former tennis player Andrea Petković.
The girl who was born in Tuzla and built her career under the flag of Germany, points out that the Italian has some qualities that were not characteristic of much more famous players, such as Novak Djokovic or Rafael Nadal.
"I recommend anyone who says that Siner's tennis is sometimes boring to watch him live," said Andrea.
"You don't see an incredible fact on television - Janik hits the ball even harder when there are crucial moments of the match. Not even Novak Djokovic or Rafael Nadal do that. And they sometimes slow down for tactical reasons when there are decisive points. Siner always hits very hard. And somewhat illogical, the harder he hits, the safer he is," said Andrea Petković.
She is also delighted with the way the Italian moves.
"Always in perfect balance, as if he is skiing down the mountain. And he does it in a very beautiful way. It doesn't matter how hard he hits, he never loses his balance. And I think Siner is unjustifiably less talked about than Carlos Alcaraz. Probably because when Janik he doesn't play well, they immediately say that he plays boringly. When Alkaras loses, he still seems very entertaining and that's why the fans like him. But when Siner plays well, he is the most attractive in the world," said Andree Petković.
