Flavio Cobolli è peremptory over Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz
During an interview given to the microphones of the "Corriere dello Sport", Flavio Cobolli, among the various topics discussed, was blunt about the rivalry between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, who were the great protagonists of the season that just ended with two Slams won each.
"Jannik and Carlos are the present and will be the future of the sport. To get to their level è very difficult for everyone, but I hope that the gap behind them can be flattened, so that we can put them in more difficulty, which we didn't manage too much this year. Having said that; I always cheer for Sinner and I hold Alcaraz in high esteem, so I am very happy when they get good results" began the blue tennis player.
"I did not expect to be able to get so high in such a short time, although, during the course of 2024, I have gained the awareness that I can be part of this group. There are two most important moments of this season: the victory against Shelton in the semifinals in Washington, which gave me my first ATP final after intense weeks, and the first victory in a Davis match, an indelible memory that made me proud" continued the Tuscan tennis player.
"I never set end points. I live 2025 as a new start in which I hope to confirm what I have done well in the last year. I am not talking about results, but about the seriousness I have put into the work and the desire to grow. The goal on the field will be to try to put everyone through the wringer," added the Florence native.
"I am sorry I was not able to train with Carlos, but the pain did not go away and the time got a little bit longer, but I have recovered and I am finally doing well on the court. I am gradually recovering tennis and athletic condition, but I am calm because I just need to play a few matches,” concluded Flavio Cobolli.
