The words of Ion Tiriac

Ion Tiriac, legendary tennis player who in his career as a manager launched among others Boris Becker, spoke to the Messenger about Jannik Sinner: "For me it should be sold dear to a few companies. Let’s say, maximum five. Because otherwise how do you give them satisfaction? Today 70 percent of earnings come just from extras, not from premiums. That is also why one of the key points è star management: priority; slams, of course. Today I say that a mega tennis star earns too much, but è the usual talk of supply and demand. And of the’exclusivityà of the character".

"When he was with Piatti and they came to me for advice, I immediately noticed his human qualities. He was helpful, humble, listened and was ready to get things done. Not only that. An Italian, today, changes the face of world tennis. Becauseé you have a great sports tradition, a past and you know well how to establish and enhance a sport".

Final suggestion: "He must not be lured by easy money, super-paying performance and he must manage the calendar better. He could become like Becker in his day, who earned more than Michael Jordan. Today, Sinner, is worth $50 million a year. He canò get as easy as 100".
