Jannik Sinner’s skit with Matteo Berrettini goes viral: fans unleashed on social media
Jannik Sinner shows his more playful side
To those who often reproach him for not allowing himself to indulge in particular displays of cheerfulness, Jannik Sinner responded, more or less directly, by making himself the protagonist of a very funny siparietto with his colleague Matteo Berrettini, which was staged during the Super Tennis Awards in which the two champions were among the protagonists and which è became viral on the internet.
Host Piero Chiambretti "provoked" the world number 1 by asking him: "If you were to be reborn, would you like to be him? " pointing to Berrettini. To the South Tyrolean's very prompt positive response, the Turin showman retorted by saying, "Give me a reason", receiving "Eh…" as a reply. Immediate hilarity ensued from those present, Sinner and Chiambretti himself, who nodded, saying, "I understand… I would also like to be him".
Social media, then, did the rest, with fans of the two blue champions going wild, making viral the forty seconds or so in which è everything happened. What was striking was not only Jannik Sinner's sympathy and laughter, but also the genuine embarrassment of Matteo Berrettini who, taken by surprise, didn't quite know how to respond.
A moment, therefore, of levity that confirms how these champions are as strong on the court as they are affable and funny off: On Facebook, Instagram, X and TikTok è unanimous was the chorus of Italian tennis fans and enthusiasts, who applauded the ability to put themselves on the line and make fun of themselves a bit by two athletes of the highest caliber.
