Jannik Sinner and Taylor Fritz have contrasting views on the ITF’s decision to allow off-court coaching from next year onwards. Earlier this month, the governing body announced that off-court coaching will be permitted at all ATP, WTA and ITF events starting from January.
The rule is likely to result in coaches getting more involved during matches, something which Fritz is not too happy about. He recently voiced his opposition on X, formerly Twitter, saying: “Can we stop ruining the 1v1 mental/strategic aspect of the sport PLEASE.”
Sinner, meanwhile, does not believe the new rule will shake things up too much because some coaches are already more vocal than others during matches.
