Great praise, from winning athlete to winning athlete.

Sofia Goggia extols Jannik Sinner, whom she rated the Italian sportsman of the moment. The Bergamasque ski champion made this clear by answering a specific question about the South Tyrolean tennis star during a lengthy press conference in which she outlined her physical condition and recovery time after her dramatic leg injury.

"Sport è emulation – Sofia Goggia stressed – and nothing more than a child dreams of being able to excel in sport as and as much as the champion of the moment passing by on TV. So the fact that in so many sports there are many champions è significant. I think this aspect is fundamental to what the movements of individual disciplines are. And also for the movement of the sport, in the specific sport itself".

Already in the past, as pointed out during the press conference, Sofia Goggia had praised Jannik Sinner’s style on the tennis courts. A parallel with the San Candido prodigy regarding knees had also come from her.
