The doping controversy might have served Jannik Sinner with an emotional and psychological toll but the young champ managed to rise back up. Ready to be in a clash against the hard court specialist Daniil Medvedev, the 23-year-old is determined to give fans another Australian Open-like experience. While it was high time for the ATP star who’s rarely backed by members of his family in the stands, another special connection tried to fill in.

Before even the doping controversy came to light, Jannik Sinner was surrounded by questions of a split with his freshly-budded connection with Anna Kalinskaya. Although there was no confirmation on this update and the situation seemed to be cold with no paparazzi shots, the WTA star finally made a heartwarming gesture. As the young Italian plays Medvedev for a slot in the semi-finals, Kalinskaya was present in the stands to root for him.

This is a developing story!!!
