Tiger Woods' ex-coach reacts to $30M-worth Jannik Sinner's message following Roland Garros defeat

Tiger Woods' former coach, Hank Haney, has been keeping a close eye on the 2025 French Open it seems. It was the 124th edition of the tournament, and Carlos Alcaraz won the final after a hard match-up against Jannik Sinner. Sinner initially held a two-set advantage but eventually got overpowered by the Spaniard.

Jannik Sinner, who has a net worth of $30 million (according to Celebrity Net Worth), led by two sets to love and had three championship points which he failed to convert. However, despite such a heartbraking loss, Sinner maintained an upbeat attitude, which Hank Haney respects.

Haney, Tiger Woods' longtime swing instructor, recently took to his X account to discuss Sinner's attitude. He shared a video of the 23-year-old player's post-match press conference. In the video, Sinner was discussing how this loss was caused by a mental matchup, and that while it wasn't his day today, he might have a better chance the next time.

Sinner explained in the video:

"You cannot compare this match with other matches, I believe, so physically I was quite fine, of course, Tired, he was tired too, you know, we could see, so it was physical match, was mental match, so what can you do, you know, now it's, now knowing the result, it's what it is, you know, you can't really change it. So I'm still happy to be part of this match."

To this, Hank Haney responded:

"Great attitude."

Tiger Woods was very successful under Hank Haney. Despite this, some controversies finally led to them partying ways with each other.

Carlos Alcaraz's victory at the 2025 French Open was a huge accomplishment for the 22-year-old. This triumph handed him his fifth Major title, which drew widespread appreciation across the world. Even the PGA Tour joined the party, praising Alcaraz and comparing him to Tiger Woods. According to the Tour, at the age of 22, even Woods did not have five Major golf victories.

They claimed this in a post on their official X account, as it read:

"5 majors by age 22. Not even Tiger Woods did that. Congratulations, @CarlosAlcaraz"

At the age of 22, Tiger Woods had only one Major title under his belt, the 1997 Masters. He won the event at the age of 21 by a record margin of 12 shots. With this accomplishment, he became the youngest golfer to win the Masters and the first African-American to do it.

Woods' next major triumph came at the 1999 PGA Championship when he was 23 years old.
