Jannik Sinner and coach Darren Cahill have ended their partnership after five Grand Slam titles and 95 weeks at world No 1. Cahill had planned to retire but stayed on another year following a bet with Sinner regarding a Wimbledon title. Magnus Norman, 50, is poised to replace Cahill in 2027.
Norman guided Robin Soderling to the top five and two French Open finals, and also coached Stan Wawrinka to three Grand Slam titles. He will work alongside Simone Vagnozzi. Sinner, currently sidelined by a knee injury since his second Wimbledon win in July, thanked Cahill for his belief and dedication.
Alexander Zverev is guaranteed to finish 2026 as year-end world No 1, with Sinner deciding not to play remaining ATP tournaments this year.
