Wimbledon has a lot of traditional rules for players to follow. The all-white dress code has been the most famous at the event. There is a minimum standard for logos on their sleeves, collars, headbands, socks, and equipment bags. Wimbledon has been a more traditional rule-following event than the other three Grand Slams. All the players follow the rules set by the Grand Slams, however, Jannik Sinner seems to find a way to make a fashion statement.
Jannik Sinner is playing at Wimbledon for the third time. He is in his second consecutive quarterfinal at the event. The 21-year-old is well aware of the rules and regulations at Wimbledon. Although he is not yet looked upon as a fashion icon, his style caught the attention of many a few days ago.

The World Number 8 was spotted carrying a custom-made Gucci duffel bag with red and green straps with his letter written on it. It was a surprise for the fans and the players, as it is quite an uncommon sight at Wimbledon. He had to get special permission to carry the luxury brand around on the court. Sinner said, “Gucci for me represents Italian excellence around the world, excellence which is rooted in tradition as much as in innovation.”
The young generation star wanted the style from Gucci’s archives and wanted space to keep the equipment. The cost of the bag might range from £1670 to £3690 ($2150 to $4100 approx.)
Jannik Sinner net worth and endorsements
Sinner became the brand ambassador for Gucci last year and has endorsed several other brands in his 5-year career. At the beginning of his career, he was signed by Head for a year. He still uses Head rackets, and his clothing has shifted to Nike. The 6-foot-2-inch player has also signed deals with Alfa Romeo, an Italian Luxury car manufacturer.
Sinner with an estimated net worth of $10 million had also become the global ambassador for Rolex in 2020 and joined the likes of Roger Federer, Maria Sharapova, and Garbine Muguruza, who too have been with the brand. In the same year, Sinner became the global ambassador for the Italian cheese company Parmigiano Reggiano. He mentioned on social media that he has been Parmigiano Reggiano’s loyal customer since childhood.
Sinner has signed deals with multiple companies at such a young age. The seven-time tour title winner has been making waves on tour and has also made his mark outside the court. His maturity and confidence put him a class above the other young players. The Italian number one will be rallying hard to reach the semifinals of a Grand Slam for the first time at Wimbledon.
