On July 26, 2025, press reports from Italian media stirred up a story that Darren Cahill, long‑time coach of Jannik Sinner, would not travel to the 2025 US Open in New York and instead take a short break. The claim said Simone Vagnozzi would be the only coach in New York. But Brad Gilbert, legendary coach of Andre Agassi, Andy Roddick and Coco Gauff, quickly jumped in to deny the report. Caution hangs in the air, what is true and what is just a rumor?
Brad Gilbert calls the report ‘absolutely fake news’, saying Darren Cahill will be at the US Open
Brad Gilbert, writing on X (Twitter) on July 25, 2025, said about the report: “For the record this is completely fake news.” He stressed that Cahill will indeed be present at Flushing Meadows as part of Sinner’s team. Gilbert added that stories like the one from la Repubblica, claiming Cahill would take a “short break”, are just clickbait with no real basis.
Gilbert works as an analyst for ESPN and has longstanding ties with Cahill. His message came as a pushback against speculation, making it clear: Cahill is expected in New York to support world No. 1 Jannik Sinner.
Jannik Sinner’s team context: when, where, who and what next
Jannik Sinner, ranked No. 1 since June 2024, has won four of the past seven Grand Slams, including the 2024 US Open and 2025 Wimbledon. He began working with Simone Vagnozzi in February 2022 and added Darren Cahill in July 2022, forming a successful coaching duo.

Earlier in January 2025, Cahill himself said he planned to retire at the end of 2025, making Sinner his final player on tour . But after Sinner won Wimbledon in July 2025 in London, speculation arose that Cahill might continue into 2026 reports from Corriere della Sera suggested the partnership could last beyond 2025.
Sinner’s co‑coach Simone Vagnozzi, speaking to the ATP Tour on July 24, said: “Honestly, nothing’s certain at the moment. But we’ll all be happy if Darren stays.” That uncertainty is part of the bigger picture as Sinner heads into the final Grand Slam of the year.
