Omar Camporese sheds light on Jannik Sinner
The words of Omar Camporese
Omar Camporese è returned to speak at Fanpage microphones to clarify the meaning of an'interview on Jannik Sinner that made people discuss: "When people misrepresent your words, when you are targeted and you are told ‘shut up’ ‘you don't understand anything’ … well it’s annoying. I understand that everyone can have his own opinion, but the thought must always be expressed politely. When it goes beyond that I don’t like it anymore. I always say you have to read the articles: I would never allow myself at this time to speak ill of Sinner, Musetti or Italy itself. They won the Davis Cup and we still do not realize what an extraordinary fairy tale these guys".
"On social and text messages I have been getting insults. I would like to be clear once and for all becauseé I do not have to hide anything from anyone and I always say what I think: Sinner right now canò be number one or number two for me. Drawing up a weekly or monthly ranking or è the strongest player in the world or second, but we want to see him at the top. What does he have to do for me? Because there is a 1,000 point difference in my opinion he has to be careful in those three months on clay. If he can do so much in that period he canò become number one in the world"
"We always want to see him at the top: è he made it to the finals at the Finals, he won us the Davis Cup, even though it è a team match and everybody wins, he made the difference. Since in quotes he has already achieved very good results and has the chances to become number one, the only thing I can say è that in my opinion he has to pay attention in those months. In my opinion Alcaraz right now has a little bit more, Djokovic despite losing twice to Jannik has a little bit more. Remember the Grand Slams are not like the Davis Cup, they are three out of five and you struggle more. I’ll give you an example: I don’t know how it would have gone with the old Davis formula, three out of five. And then to be number one you have to look at the little details that make the difference. By the way, Slams are not like Davis which was played in perfect conditions for Jannik because it is played in the heat, on clay where his game does not lead to as many points as on fast. A lot of work needs to be done. È my opinion and I think his coach and staff think the same thing".
"I don’t know these guys very well. But è what his face conveys to me: from there; you can tell he è someone who always wants to improve, who gets up in the morning and wonders what to do to grow. È a gift that not everyone has, an important quality. Because é he with his humility é and calmness of mind always wants to try to progress, because é I think (ironically, ed.) he wants to become the new number one in the world. In my opinion, taking away Djokovic who sooner or later will have toà stop playing, the 4 who will compete for the leadership will be Sinner, Alcaraz, Shelton and Rune".
