Cahill Shares Positive Update on Sinner’s Elbow Injury

JAKARTA, July 9, 2025 — Tennis fans have reason to breathe a little easier as coach Darren Cahill has offered a hopeful update on Jannik Sinner’s recovery from a lingering elbow issue that had sparked concern during the early stages of Wimbledon 2025.

Sinner, the world No. 2 and one of the top contenders this season, appeared to be dealing with discomfort in his right elbow during his recent matches. However, Cahill has now confirmed that the situation is under control and improving.

“He’s responding well to treatment, and we’re managing the load carefully,” Cahill told reporters after Sinner’s latest win.

“There’s no structural damage — just some inflammation. We’re confident he’ll be fine moving forward.”

The reassuring update comes as a relief to fans and the Italian’s team alike, especially given the physical demands of Grand Slam play and the high expectations riding on Sinner this season. He’s already reached the quarterfinals without dropping a set, displaying his trademark power and composure — despite the minor concern.

Cahill credited the medical staff for staying ahead of the issue, emphasizing that Sinner’s schedule and training have been slightly adjusted to allow for rest and recovery without compromising his rhythm.

“He’s smart, he listens to his body, and we’re not taking unnecessary risks,” Cahill added.

With Sinner on track and still a major title threat, attention now turns to his next opponent — and whether the elbow will hold up under pressure in the later stages of the tournament.

For now, Cahill’s update signals that Italy’s top star remains firmly in the hunt for his first Wimbledon crown.
