Francesca Schiavone takes a chance on Jannik Sinner at Wimbledon

The words of Francesca Schiavone

Having archived Roland Garros, è it è already time to think about Wimbledon, with the short season on grass beginning with preparation tournaments. In anticipation of the big event in London, Francesca Schiavone è unbalanced herself on Jannik Sinner to the microphones of Sportmediaset: “I feel like saying that on the ’grass è the favorite. I don’t say that to put pressure on him, but because he’s got characteristics suited to this surface, he’s got important timing on the ball. He’ arrived in Paris that was not ready from a physical and training point of view, but despite that; he’ still made it to the semifinals, achieving an extraordinary result".

“At Wimbledon, on the other hand, once he returned home, after celebrating with his family the first position in the world, he è set to work and already we have seen him in some shots. For me he has the game to win it, or at least come close to doing it, because he deserves it. He's an amazing guy, è he has become an example for everyone, even us old tennis players", explained the former Roland Garros triumphant.

Closing remark on Jasmine Paolini, finalist in Paris: “È she was very good already from the first rounds because of how well she moved the ball. She had a major growth in believing in herself. It was difficult to think she could win in the presence of a Swiatek in this state of form, but to make a Slam Final è extraordinary and it è even more so" than in our time".
