Jannik Sinner had a season to remember, with the 23-year-old Italian winning a stunning eight titles in 2024.

Sinner ended 2024 top of the ATP rankings, having won two Grand Slam titles at the Australian Open and US Open.

World number one Sinner dominated hard court events, and will be looking to enjoy similar success in 2025.

Sinner will be eager to start out the new season with an Australian Open title defence, having come from behind in stunning fashion to beat Daniil Medvedev last time out.

He then ended 2024 with a more straightforward US Open final victory over home favourite Taylor Fritz in New York.

Despite his success, the 23-year-old will work extremely hard in the off-season, although he has been enjoying some downtime with several other tennis stars at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

Sinner certainly deserves a break after his efforts on the court in 2024, but he will be well aware of the challenge that now lies ahead, while there is also a potential ban coming his way regarding his ongoing doping case.

But the Italian has put a target on his back with his success, with the likes of Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic certain to want to get back to the summit as soon as possible.

But Sinner will be hard to topple, with the 23-year-old perhaps only really getting going, with more Grand Slam titles undoubtedly now the target.

Perhaps triumphing on other surfaces will also be on his agenda, with the Italian losing in the French Open semi-finals and Wimbledon quarter-finals in 2024.

He and Garcia certainly weren’t the only players enjoying their rest ahead of 2025, with Aryna Sabalenka, Paula Badosa, Grigor Dimitrov and Elena Rybakina all in Abu Dhabi for the race.
