This is what motivates him every day. We\u2019re very pleased with the progress he\u2019s made over the last five years, but we\u2019re convinced there\u2019s still room for improvement.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Vagnozzi has implored Sinner to introduce more variety to his game following his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/wimbledon\">Wimbledon<\/a> triumph, namely adding serving and volleying to his game.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday, for example, I don\u2019t think he even had a single serve-and-volley,\u201d explained the Italian coach \u201cThere was also a rally at 4-3 where he could have closed the point by going to the net, but instead he didn\u2019t, ultimately losing the point.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are always areas where we can improve. Our plan is to make him an increasingly aggressive player: going to the net more often, using a few more drop balls at the right times, and further expanding his repertoire.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That should strike fear into the rest of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/ATP-Tour\">ATP Tour<\/a>, as Sinner has proven to be pretty dominant against every opponent he has faced so far this year.<\/p>\n<p>The star has only lost three matches all year. The first came against <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/novak-djokovic\">Novak Djokovic<\/a> at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/australian-open\">Australian Open<\/a>, which saw the Serbian produce one of his best displays in years.<\/p>\n<p>Even then, Djokovic was forced to save plenty of break points and the match went to five sets.<\/p>\n<p>His next defeat came against <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/jakub-mensik\">Jakub Mensik<\/a> at the Qatar Open, as the rising Czech star knocked Sinner out of the ATP 500 event in three sets.<\/p>\n<p>The last came against Juan Manuel Cerundolo at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/roland-garros\">Roland Garros<\/a>, as the Argentine capitalised on Sinner\u2019s fatigue issues to knock him out of the second round.<\/p>\n<p>That means Sinner is yet to lose a straight sets match this year, in a season which has seen him rack up 44 victories already, and lift six titles.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/jannik-sinners-coach-tells-him-he-must-improve-in-one-key-area-after-wimbledon-win\">Jannik Sinner\u2019s coach tells him he must improve in one key area after Wimbledon win<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/\">Tennis365<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jannik Sinner is on top of the world right now, having won the Wimbledon title for the second consecutive year.
