Jannik Sinner replaces coach Darren Cahill with Magnus Norman before Australian Open
The Italian says he will not rush his rehabilitation to be fit for the first Grand Slam of 2027.
Italian tennis star Jannik Sinner has changed his coaching team. Darren Cahill, who coached him for the past four years, has left, and Sweden’s Magnus Norman will take his place, Sportstar reported on 10 November.
Mr. Norman is best known as the former coach of Stan Wawrinka, whom he guided to three Grand Slam titles.
Sinner aims to return for the Australian Open in January, but said he will not rush his rehabilitation, according to the report.
The Australian Open, held in Melbourne, is the first of tennis’s four Grand Slam tournaments each year. Sinner won it in 2024 and 2025.
The report did not set out the nature of his injury or when he last played.
