The world’s #1 sinner was defeated Thomas Martin Etcheverry 6-7(3), 6-4, 6-2 today to reach the round of 16 of the Shanghai Rolex Masters.
Sinner was then asked to set the record straight on reports that he was engaged or married following his US Open win.
Sinner said reports that the pair married or that he proposed to WTA star Kalinskaya are “fake news” and news to her.
“It was new to me too, to be honest,” Sinner said, prompting laughter at his presser after the game. “No, I didn’t ask and nothing, nothing happened.
I just read a bit of the details that happened after the US Open, but it’s all fake, fake news. Thank you.”
Next up for Sinner is a Round of 16 meeting in Shanghai with either Ben Shelton or Roberto Carballes Baena.
