Jannik Sinner wants to get even better after winning the US Open 2024 | On-Court Interview

Jannik Sinner's on-court interview following his win vs. Taylor Fritz in the final of the 2024 US Open.nnSpeakernNow it's time to hear from the champion, Jannik Sinner. Your first US Open, the first Italian man to claim this title in history. What does it mean to you, Jannik?nnJannik SinnernYeah, hello everyone, first of all, and I would like to start with Taylor. I know how much work he puts in. You're doing an amazing job. Congrats to you, Taylor, and the whole team. It's so nice to see you in big stages like this, and I'm quite sure that you're going to play many of those. So I wish you best of luck for the future.nnThis title for me means so much, because the last period of my career was really not easy. There is my team who supports me every day, the people who are close to me. I love tennis, I practice a lot for these kinds of stages, but I also realise that off the court there is a life.nnI would like to dedicate this title to my aunt, because she is really not feeling well health-wise. I don't know how much I still have her in my life. It's so nice that I can share positive moments still with her. She was a very important person for my life, and she still is. If there would be the biggest wish, I would wish everyone the best health, but unfortunately it's not possible.nnSpeakernYou came into this tournament saying, I'm not sure I have very high expectations. For someone with low expectations for how he might perform, how did you get this done over two weeks?nnJannik SinnernI did pretty well, I guess. We just went day by day, trying to practice well, even in the days off. Believing in ourselves, which is the most important. I understood, especially in this tournament, how important the mental part is in this sport, and I guess in every sport.nnI'm very happy, very proud to share this moment with my team. I know there are a lot of people watching from home, but I would like to thank everyone for being so fair in this amazing arena.nIt was a huge pleasure.nnSpeakernFinally, Dr. Heinlein said it, you are number one in the world, far and away. You've now won two major titles this year. To put in perspective how difficult that is, you are only the fourth man in more than 50 years to win your first two major titles in the same calendar year. You have had a hell of a year.nnHow would you phrase it? How would you describe the year?nnJannik SinnernIncredible.nSo many big wins for me this season. Starting off with Australia, and then playing so well there, which then gave me confidence for until now. But the work never stops.nI know that I still can improve, as we saw today, a couple of things, but you have to be proud with what you have. You have to go for it, you have to work for it. So I can't wait for my continued process.nnThank you. nnSpeakernCongratulations.nAnd now comes the real fun stuff. First, to present you with a check for $3,600,000, Claudia Jury from J.P. Morgan. Congratulations.nYou have made Italy proud, and I wore the orange dress for you.nnJannik SinnernThank you so much, I appreciate it. Thank you so much.nnSpeakernAnd now, to present the champion's trophy, Andre Agassi.
