Angelo Binaghi: "Rino Tommasi è the history of tennis"
Soì Angelo Binaghi, president of the Italian Tennis and Padel Federation, remembered Rino Tommasi, who died today at the age of 90.
"Just mentioning Rino Tommasi is tantamount to evoking a fine piece of tennis history, having him covered hundreds of Slams, Davis Cups, Masters" as a journalist.
“We all remember his statistical accuracy but above all his passion for the world of racquetball, which he shared along with that for the rings".
"His commentaries with Gianni Clerici also remain a source of inspiration for those who è came after them. On a personal level we were adversaries in my first election, but we had the same idea about the formula that the Davis Cup should have, for ité to be truly the world championship for nations".
