Milan, 7 January (LaPresse) – Jannik Sinner received a star welcome in Seoul, where on Saturday morning he will face Carlos Alcaraz in an exhibition match that will be broadcast live and unencrypted on SuperTennis at 8 a.m. Italian time, the “Hyundai Card Super Match”. Many fans stopped the Italian player at the airport to ask for his autograph. The South Tyrolean also received a bouquet of white flowers as a gift. The exhibition in South Korea, the first unofficial match of 2026 between the world's top two players, is the prologue to a season that promises to be crucial for both. Sinner, in fact, is aiming to regain the world number one spot. Alcaraz, on the other hand, will face his first year on the circuit without Juan Carlos Ferrero as his coach after their split was announced before Christmas.
