Patrick Mouratoglou säger att Jannik Sinner inte kommer att delta i en bojkott av Franska öppna

Patrick Mouratoglou, Serena Williams tidigare tränare, uppger att världsettan Jannik Sinner sannolikt inte kommer att delta i någon bojkott av Franska öppna 2026 gällande prispengar. Mouratoglou betonade riskerna för toppspelare och svårigheterna med att uppnå enighet bland tävlande.

Mouratoglou uttryckte skepsis gällande en bojkott i år. Han noterade att samordning mellan toppspelare fortfarande är nytt och svårt att organisera effektivt mot turneringsarrangörer eller styrande organ. Sinner, som nådde finalen i Franska öppna förra året, har enligt tränaren mycket att vinna på att delta.
