Italy has found another outstanding champion in Jannik Sinner, who is highly respected by both the general public and his tennis peers.
Sinner always expressed his gratitude to Matteo Berrettini for his unwavering support throughout the Davis Cup. Despite being unable to play because of injuries, the former Wimbledon champion trained with his fellow countrymen in Malaga and Bologna for the group stage.
In honor of the historic triumph, President Sergio Mattarella met the Davis Cup heroes in the Quirinale, where Berrettini was also present.
During an interview, Berrettini underlined his praise for the guys and expressed his unique appreciation for Sinner. He expressed his thoughts and said: “The boys deserved it; I enjoyed a great moment of tennis. Sinner performed a miracle, and I will use this energy for my tennis too. I was pleased with what Jannik said. We have a good relationship that has strengthened in recent months. We are different but similar; we chase the same dream. I’m better—not 100% yet. Soon we will understand where to return.”
Berrettini added: “The goal is to play for a long time and not keep stopping; this thing destroys my body and physique. It’s stimulating to have a new coach; I’m working hard and I have good feelings for the future. Unfortunately, we haven’t played yet, but I’m happy. Sinner brought a Slam, but the renaissance of tennis had started again with Fabio Fognini and Marco Cecchinato. It’s a rare moment for tennis, but also for other sports.”
Due to a foot issue, Berrettini has not yet decided which tournament he will play in to make his comeback on the court.
