"It's right to stop to prevent a minor problem from causing a longer suspension of activity. It's a good message for all to hear from Sinner, which is to preserve your body".

"And he also stresses a fundamental element: pain è an alarm bell of our body. Never play sports when there'è pain. The first thing è stop. It's the precise request that comes to us from the body and we must listen to it".
