Paolo Bertolucci no doubt about Jannik Sinner and Lorenzo Musetti
Paolo Bertolucci, on the sidelines of the press conference presenting the Grand Finale of the tennis season on Sky, spoke to the microphones of Sportal.it about Jannik Sinner and Italian tennis, which are having an unprecedented year. The former tennis player and now Sky pundit immediately focused attention on the world number one, who is more launched than ever despite the Clostebol case.
"How does Jannik Sinner play in this psychological condition? I, every time I hear him speak and every time I see him play, every time I follow a training session, I never cease to be amazed because he is something pure, something different, something clean, something serious, who looks like a UFO that è glided among us, so it is we who must deserve him and not vice versa".
"Lorenzo Musetti exploded at the wrong time? From a certain point of view sì from the other forò in my opinion Sinner pulls the whole movement, we have seen it, in short it is not è a case that we will be present in all the finals, singles doubles, men and women. So Musetti could also safely travel with the headlights off without too much pressure on him, and from that point of view it would be a nice advantage. And then above all to have such a player in front of you, who opens the wake è very important, follow him, copy him as much as you can; and try to shorten as much as possible the gap that divides them".
On the Azzurri hopes in the Davis Cup: "Whyé are we favored but not heavily favored? Becauseé there are other well-equipped teams, becauseé you play 2 out of 3, becauseé the doubles counts 33%, becauseé you play everything within a single day so è true we start probably with Sinner's 1 to 0 but if in case Sinner got very tired he has some small physical problem… we could also lose the number 2 match and at that point who plays the doubles? So we will have to be very careful, becauseé the United States, becauseé Spain, becauseé Germany have very strong numbers 2 and doubles".
