The words of Tathiana Garbin

Tathiana Garbin, Billie Jean King Cup captain, è joined the condolences for the death of Lea Pericoli, entrusting the Fitp website with a message for the legendary Milanese tennis player.

"She was a woman of incredible elegance, both in her style and in her manner. I liked her very much, also because she knew how to be ironic and authentic", her first words.

"I remember when, with her unfailing smile, she would tell us in disbelief that we players would take the court without even a thread of makeup", added Tathiana Garbin.

"She&#39s always been our first supporter, especially when we wore the blue jersey and played in her beloved Fed Cup. Her intelligence and class made her a unique and special woman. We will miss her a lot".
