World No.1 Jannik Sinner has struggled in the heat of his fourth-round match at the Australian Open . The defending champion served a double fault to gift Holger Rune the opportunity to serve out the second set, with the 13th seed duly levelling the match at one frame apiece. But what was described as “worrying signs” emerged during the break between sets. Sinner was pictured clearly affected as he sat on his bench. “He looks distressed. He doesn’t take water, there is no towel.
” Sinner soon returned but even then Courier realised the top seed had failed to give himself the maximum opportunity to recover. “What is interesting is he didn’t take a shirt to go change,” the tennis great said. “He could have bought himself two more minutes of rest time if he had changed his shirt or shoes, because you get an extra couple of minutes if you do that. So he is not thinking clearly either, because he should have done that.
