Refusing Italy in the Davis Cup sparks a controversy. Sinner, think again.
Sinner, 24 years old, explained his refusal to compete in the 2025 tournament due to his desire to prepare more thoroughly for the 2026 season. This year’s Davis Cup will be held in Bologna, Italy, from November 18 to 23.
In the quarterfinals, the Italian team will face Austria. Previously, with Sinner’s participation, Italy won the Davis Cup twice in a row.
