Grigor Dimitrov appears much shorter despite being listed an inch taller than Jannik Sinner on ATP website
According to ATP’s official website, Grigor Dimitrov stands tall at 191cm, three centimeters over Jannik Sinner, whose height is stated as 188cm. However, in a recent picture that has gone viral where both players are standing beside each other, Sinner looks the taller player.
This certainly puts the authenticity of data and statistics on ATP’s official website in doubt.
One could argue that the data is not updated, and Sinner has grown a few inches recently. Well, that’s very much possible as Sinner has just turned 21 and it is scientifically possible for him to gain a few inches. However, Dimitrov, who is in his early 30s, does not have that luxury. Whatever may be the reason, Sinner certainly looks taller than Dimitrov in naked eye.
Sinner and Dimitrov are both currently playing at the Sofia Open. While Sinner is the top seed, Dimitrov is seeded third. Dimitrov will Ilya Ivashka in his opening match while Sinner will take on Nuno Borges.
