He chose not to hold a press conference after the Cincinnati Open final but provided some quotes via the ATP, saying that he will be 'ready to push' for another Grand Slam title at the US Open.

Tennis World USA on MSNJannik Sinner teams up with Katerina Siniakova for US Open mixed doubles
After Emma Navarro's withdrawal, Jannik Sinner will make his US Open mixed doubles debut alongside one of the most decorated doubles player of the last decade. World no. 1 will join forces with Katerina Siniakova.
The new, and controversial, US Open mixed doubles event begins this afternoon with big names from tennis’ list of star players set to headline the tournament. Among them are Carlos Alcaraz, fresh from his win at the Cincinnati Open and British No.
It felt like tennis had delivered the perfect script—world No. 1 Jannik Sinner versus world No. 2 Carlos Alcaraz in a Masters 1000 final. Both had torn through the draw in Cincinnati, barely breaking a sweat, setting up the dream clash fans had been waiting for.
Thus, Sinner will almost certainly miss the US Open mixed doubles and enjoy a week off the court ahead of the ultimate challenges. "Now I will take a couple of days to recover, then I will get back to work, hoping to be ready. The US Open is my main goal in the United States," Jannik Sinner said.
