The reasons behind Sinner's sudden dismissal of Panichi and Badia before Wimbledon have been revealed, with team member leaks causing dissatisfaction.

On the eve of Wimbledon, Yannick Sinner abruptly parted ways with fitness coach Marco Panichi and physiotherapist Ulises Badia, a surprising change that sparked various speculations. Now, the underlying reason for this decision has finally come to light — a team member disclosed private details during an interview, which became the catalyst.

According to *La Gazzetta dello Sport*, the conflict focused on the turmoil following the 2025 French Open final. At that time, Sinner lost to Carlos Alcaraz in a grueling five-set match, but coach Panichi revealed numerous post-match details to the media — Sinner cried for 15 minutes in the locker room and felt unhappy with the audience's preference for Alcaraz.

The public disclosure of these personal emotions left Sinner extremely displeased. Badia, who joined the team alongside Panichi in September 2024, was also seen as "collaterally affected" and was dismissed as well.

It's worth noting that Panichi and Badia had long served together in Novak Djokovic's team, bringing rich experience from high-level competitions. However, Sinner believed that team members should uphold professional ethics. Although Sinner downplayed the situation in a pre-Wimbledon press conference by stating, "Nothing major happened," and expressed his desire to make some changes while thanking both for their past contributions, it was clear that the leak had shaken their mutual trust.

This change sparked considerable controversy at the time. Former world number one Andy Roddick candidly remarked on a podcast: "Changing teams right before Wimbledon is very strange; it's not something you do when aiming for your first Wimbledon title. There must be external factors involved, possibly financial issues or disputes, and the truth is likely to remain hidden."

Interestingly, while the storm was still brewing, Panichi quickly found a new position — he has been hired by Danish player Holger Rune and will accompany him to the Cincinnati Masters. Meanwhile, Sinner responded to all doubts with his performance, triumphing at Wimbledon to secure his first Wimbledon title, marking his fourth Grand Slam title overall, proving his remarkable adaptability following the team changes.

It must be said that every move of star players becomes a media focal point. At the same time, it reflects the player's unique personality traits. Some say Sinner is reserved, low-key, and unassuming. However, his strong response to the doping incident, decisive dismissal of Panichi and Badia, and firm reappointment of Ferrara, one of the individuals responsible for the positive drug test, all indicate that Sinner is a person of great inner strength!

Sinner's inner monologue might be:

"Positive drug test" incident — I did nothing wrong!

Dismissing the fitness coach and physiotherapist — I am in charge of my team!

Reappointing Ferrara — No violations, no wrongdoing!

It must be said that such traits are indeed what a champion needs.

However, conversely speaking: if one is strong enough inside, why fear the audience's preference for Alcaraz at the French Open? Similarly, there is no need to worry about momentary inner fragility being exposed to others.

It is evident that everyone has their inner pain points.
