Paolo Bertolucci drastic on Jannik Sinner ahead of Wimbledon

Paolo Bertoucci, from the columns of ‘La Gazzetta dello Sport,’ seemed concerned about Jannik Sinner ahead of Wimbledon.

“Let’s face it: we hoped and thought that the week leading up to the appointment with Wimbledon would be much richer in satisfaction and expectations than the shadows that will instead accompany our stars to the world’s most famous lawns,” said the Italian tennis legend. “On the contrary: Berrettini, who only two years ago at the Championships played for the title against Novak Djokovic, is unlikely to tread the courts of Church Road. One cannot hide the dangerous signs of involution shown by Jannik after the semifinal lost in Monte Carlo against Rune.”

“The South Tyrolean had accustomed us to beating opponents behind him in the rankings without any problems, and instead in the last two months he has gone through some unexpected defeats,” Bertolucci added. “In his best version, Sinner was a computer programmed to exalt to perfection the three or four fundamental elements of his game, and instead the right search for new solutions seems to have taken away his certainty and awareness.
