The words of Flavio Cobolli

Flavio Cobolli spoke after the victory over Belgian Zizou Bergs by 4-6 6-3 7-5 6-3 that earned him qualification to the third round in the US Open for the first time. “In less than a year I have managed to improve my game considerably and now I am much more self-aware. I feel more comfortable on certain stages and I know I can play against anyone".

"It' was a very difficult match. He showed splendid tennis and put me in great difficulty. In order to win I had to bring out that extra something, driven by the desire to be in the third round and play another match. I like being here, playing against strong opponents, even just getting on the court gives me good feelings".

His next rival will be the world No. 5, Daniil Medvedev, finalist of this tournament last year and winner in 2021: "I know how strong he is, so Iò I will face him with an open face. I am not afraid and my motivation è to play to win. I will experience it as a privilege, because Ié will face one of the best tennis players in the world on an important court and with so many people".
