Lindsey Vonn

World No. 10 Italian tennis player Jannik Sinner has revealed that his dream is to go skiing with American great Lindsey Vonn. Sinner hails from South Tyrol, a mountainous region in northern Italy where skiing is very popular. Before taking up tennis, Sinner was good at alpine skiing.

Sinner, 20, told Gazzetta dello Sport that once his professional commitments are over, he cannot wait to go skiing at Alta Pusteria, a skiing destination in Italy with Vonn, whom he met at an event in New York earlier this year.

"She is truly an incredible person. A champion who has won everything and remained very humble and available. At the end of the season, if I can, I said that I will take her skiing on my mountains. We have to organise ourselves well, we hope to do so. It was nice to meet her and have a few words with her, a champion I watched competing on TV when I was a child," remarked Sinner.
