Angelo Mangiante recalled the Wimbledon final on July 12, won by Jannik Sinner against Alexander Zverev, who was defeated by the Italian for the tenth consecutive time. He said he had the honor of interviewing Sinner after the victory and described the day as historic for Italian sports. Mangiante reported that Sinner announced, after consulting the doctors, that he needed a cycle of treatment for his knee and considered the 2026 season over. According to the journalist, the year had ended with 44 wins and three losses, one Slam—his fifth career Slam—and five Masters 1000 titles: Indian Wells, Miami, Monte Carlo, Madrid, and Rome. Sinner had been number one for 95 weeks, Mangiante wrote, adding that the break would give Zverev the opportunity to surpass him. Mangiante explained that the diagnosis, confirmed in four consultations and also by a knee expert seen in Lyon, Professor Bertrand Sommery-Cotet, was an extra-articular tendinopathy of the right knee, indicated as ITBS. He reported that the specialists did not consider surgery necessary and recommended rest, therapy, athletic reconditioning, and muscle strengthening, without haste. The goal, he wrote, was to fully recover and return at his best in 2027. The journalist noted that the break would mean six months without Sinner, for the first time, and deemed the decision to focus on a long-term career the most sensible. He also expressed confidence that upon return, the tennis player would come back even stronger. #Tennis #JannikSinner #Sportitaliano (translated)

Tennis Time shared statements from Novak Djokovic after his title in Beijing. The tennis player said it had been eleven years since his last participation there and that he had always had high expectations, especially in a city where, he pointed out, he had never lost. Djokovic acknowledged that his situation was different and that the year had been difficult, with ups and downs and physical and health issues. He explained that he had tried to regain good feelings on the court and stated that when he felt good and hit the ball cleanly, he could still compete at the highest level. He added that he had proven that to himself that week and that he was proud. He also thanked his team for their patience and support, saying that the title meant much more to all of them than just winning a tournament or trophy. https://t.co/iWseCmsMFo #Djokovic #Beijing #Tenis (translated)

Y justo antes de entrar a tomarse las fotos oficiales para la temporada, Dani Olmo señaló el parche de la Champions League en la camiseta del FC Barcelona y soltó: "A POR LA SEXTA". El campeón del mundo sabe perfectamente cuál es el objetivo principal del Barça en la presente campaña. Lucharán por todo, pero el trofeo que realmente desean levantar es la Copa de Europa. Van por La Sexta, señoras y señores. Después de más de una década de espera, en el club blaugrana quieren romper su sequía europea. ILUSIÓN TOTAL. #ChampionsLeague #FCBarcelona #CopaDeEuropa

En un año regulero, los principales candidatos al Balón de Oro se están haciendo autopropaganda aludiendo, ni a trofeos ni a estadísticas, sino a “ser el mejor”. Pues si hablamos de “ser el mejor”, aún en 2026, lo mismo hay que tener alguna conversación… #BalóndeOro #Fútbol #Deportes

"Esta es la mejor oportunidad que he tenido en mi carrera para ganar el Balón de Oro, SIN DUDA. Fue mi mejor año individual y también colectivo en cuanto a trofeos. He hecho mucho para poder ganarlo". Harry Kane sobre el Balón de Oro. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🗣️https://t.co/di7GrPfZT1 #BalónDeOro #HarryKane #Fútbol

José Mourinho hace unos años dijo: “Pep Guardiola me dijo algo ayer… él ganó seis trofeos y yo gané tres, pero yo gané de manera justa y limpia”. “No quiero ganar lidiando con 150 demandas”. Cuanta razón… #Fútbol #Mourinho #Guardiola

Mio figlio José è in lacrime. Mi ha abbracciato e mi ha detto: “Papà, vincere un trofeo così è bellissimo. È il trionfo dell’onestà, della correttezza e dei valori dello sport”. Non sono riuscito a rispondergli, mi sono commosso anch’io. #sport #valori #emozioni
