Wimbledon champion Jannik Sinner has made a strategic decision to bring back Umberto Ferrara as his fitness coach. The move comes after parting ways with Marco Panichi and Ulises Badio, signaling a shift in strategy to bolster his team with familiar faces.

The move is part of Sinner's efforts to strengthen his athletic performance following the doping controversy. Last year, he faced public scrutiny after testing positive for traces of a banned substance, Clostebol, attributed to accidental exposure during a treatment by his former physiotherapist.

With renewed focus on continuity and maintaining top-level performance, Sinner is set to return to the courts at the Cincinnati Open, aiming to defend his U.S. Open title successfully.
