Filippo Volandri, anecdote about Jannik Sinner and number one

The words of Filippo Volandri

Filippo Volandri revealed to Supertennis an anecdote related to Jannik Sinner and the number one Atp ranking: “I remember when we went to Bratislava for Davis and he was coming from a big change and wanted to improve. He told me ‘Philip my goal è to improve, from number ten I can finish even the year from twenty, but my goal è just to improve, becauseé I want to become number one in the world’. That makes all the difference in the world”.

"We always said that he would win a Slam sooner or later, that he would become number one in the world, but his time always goes faster than ours. There’è an immense amount of work behind it, by a wonderful team made up of wonderful people, who have worked hard, hard, taking responsibility and even getting some criticism too much. An extraordinary job and so bravo, bravo, bravo".

"The victory over Djokovic mayò have been a watershed perhaps for both of them, but what made the difference è was the awareness that he beat the world number one, that he defeated Djokovic at a time when he was playing wonderfully well. That gave him awareness and then everything else è the work of his and the whole team".
