Obviously, part of that is injury-related in 2023, but you would also like to see some tweaks to his game to improve some weaknesses. He's one of the few guys on tour that doesn't have a kick serve, he's got the flat and slice serves, but why no development of a kicker? He seems content to live with a backhand that can go hot-and-cold (actually, the same goes with his forehand).
In contrast to Sinner who is confident enough to make tweaks to his serve, he has gone back-and-forth between a platform and pinpoint stance as well as changing the starting arm position for his service motion to make it more repeatable.
