Now it's official: Jannik Sinner and Darren Cahill will end their technical collaboration at the end of the 2026 season, after five years of shared success. Magnus Norman, Swedish coach and former world number 2 - we read in a note - will join the Sinner technical team at the beginning of next month, working alongside Simone Vagnozzi.
"Darren has been an incredibly important part of my journey. Together with Simone and the entire team, we have achieved goals that I have dreamed of since I was a child. Winning five Grand Slam titles and reaching number 1 in the world are successes that I will always carry in my heart; but what matters equally is the bond we have built along the way", commented Jannik Sinner.
“I want to thank Darren for believing in me, for his honesty and for his dedication. He has helped me grow as both a player and a person, and his lessons will stay with me throughout my career. We have shared some truly special moments over the last five years and, although our professional relationship comes to an end, our friendship will continue.”
Cahill: 'It was an honor and a privilege'
"Working with Jannik - added Darren Cahill himself - has been a special honor and privilege. He is an extraordinary guy, a humble and hard-working champion, of whom we are all incredibly proud. Trust, honesty and mutual respect only work when they are shared by both parties, and this has been Jannik's great strength as an athlete. It is also the reason why training a person like him becomes such a memorable experience. I want to thank Jannik, the entire team and all the fans for having welcomed this Australian into the wonderful Italian family. I wish the team nothing but further success for the years to come."
Five years of success
Cahill joined the Sinner team in June 2022 and, working alongside Simone Vagnozzi, has played a vital role in the Italian tennis player's rise to the top of the sport. Under their guidance, Sinner won five Grand Slam titles and two ATP Finals titles, also completing the "Golden Masters Career" with victories in all nine ATP Masters 1000 tournaments.
In June 2024 he reached the top of the world rankings for the first time: achievements that reflect years of dedication, constant improvement and the firm belief, shared by both, of what they could achieve together.
In addition to his sporting achievements, Cahill's experience, vision and calmness had a lasting influence on Sinner. Over time, they built a relationship based on trust and mutual respect, developing a deep friendship that went beyond a simple professional bond.
