Jannik Sinner will miss the season-ending Davis Cup finals because of a finger injury.
The Italian said he suffered the injury at the Paris Masters and has not recovered in time to join his team-mates for the finals.
“I am very sad to announce that I will not be able to participate in the Davis Cup finals,” Sinner said on social media. “I suffered a finger injury in Paris. Unfortunately I have not recovered and therefore I will not be able to be part out our team.
“It’s a very difficult decision for me, to play for my country is always an honour and I hope to be able to return soon. Go Italy!”
Sinner has suffered from several injuries in 2022 but will still end the year ranked No 15.
