Paolo Bertolucci dismantles all allegations against Jannik Sinner

The defeat to Medvedev at Wimbledon continues to cause discussion

Jannik Sinner è increasingly the center of attention. Hailed for the many successes accrued in the last period, now è the subject of endless discussions his defeat, accrued in the quarterfinals of Wimbledon, against Daniil Medvedev. There is talk of difficulty in winning in the fifth set with the tops, of imperfect energy management. Even the forfeit from the ATP tournament in Bastad sparked a thousand interpretations.

Paolo Bertolucci, through the columns of Gazzetta dello Sport, wanted to take a stand, clearly, against those who are beginning to "accuse" Jannik Sinner. The message è clear: "There is absolutely no case for trials, è he has managed to win 42 games since the beginning of the season out of 46 played".

On tournament scheduling (some say he is playing too many), Paolo Bertolucci has no doubts: "It's been perfect. Today’s tennis è physically wearing but Sinner è still young. Plus, Sinner loves playing tennis very much, his life, his work and his fun".

To those who feel that becoming No. 1 in the world is a burden for the South Tyrolean, Paolo Bertolucci responds as follows: "Since Sinner reached this amazing milestone, he has already won one tournament, in Halle. The pressure? I saw it moreù in the match against Matteo Berrettini".
