Andrea Vavassori honors Jannik Sinner

During an intervention on "Radio Serie A", Australian Open doubles finalist Andrea Vavassori, among other topics, dwelt on the singles triumph of compatriot Jannik Sinner, who è won in a comeback over Russian Daniil Medvedev, winning the first slam of his career. In addition, the Italian tennis player also commented on the excellent tournament played in partnership with Simone Bolelli.

"Jannik è always been a humble and simple person. It's a pleasure to spend time with him. He is a source of inspiration not only for young people, but for everyone. He always says interesting things and has all the characteristics to become an idol of the sport. He has been good at choosing a team made up of people who help him on a daily basis. He è a guy like many, it made me laugh a lot when he è got on stage to speak with President Mattarella, there's been a little sketch and it felt like being in school" began the blue tennis player about the South Tyrolean.

"We have experienced two very intense weeks in Australia and è a beautiful period for Italian tennis in general. If we think that in three months we won the Davis Cup, Jannik reached the ATP Finals, beat Novak Djokovic three times, won a slam after a very long time and Bolelli and I reached the final in doubles. It has been an incredible few months and the reception from President Mattarella è was the icing on the cake" added the Turin native.

"We started playing together since last season, but we never expected to reach a slam final at the first tournament in 2024, also becauseé we had not played doubles since the Us Open. This result gives you confidence and we are sure we are on the right track. We have changed several things and now we are playing more aggressively, putting a lot of pressure on our opponents. We can still improve some aspects of our game and the goal è to try to play together as much as possible. We have big goals, this year there are also the Olympics and it would be a dream to play together" commented Andrea Vavassori.
