The words of Angelo Binaghi

Italian tennis shone at the Paris Olympics with the triumph of Sara Errani and Jasmine Paolini in the women’s doubles and the bronze struck by Lornenzo Musetti in the men’s singles. "In tennis, Italy won with two medals, a gold and a bronze that is worth as much as a gold – Angelo Binaghi stressed -. We, who have come this far without Jannik Sinner and Matteo Berrettini, are the strongest nation in the world".

"Lorenzo’s bronze is worth gold, then bravo to Jasmine and those who assisted her,” added the president of the Italian Tennis and Padel Federation to the microphones of SuperTennis -, but these are the Olympics of two giants, Novak Djokovic and Sara Errani, who both completed the Golden Grand Slam, with these feats".

"Sports è gentlemen, even tennis, which returned to Sara Errani what someone had unhappily taken from her. I believe that even in Sara’s case a monument should be made to the family, we were always close to her".

"We are like elephants, we don’t forget anything, for better or for worse. Our boys are all extraordinary, they envy us all over the world. They have been above everyone, even those who were supposed to defend them and did not do so when they needed it. Now let’s think about the US Open, we will get there full, for us it will be the most important" tournament, concluded Binaghi.
