Nicola Pietrangeli gets out of line on Jannik Sinner

He thinks so about Jannik Sinner Nicola Pietrangeli, the former tennis player who today è was a guest on Rai Radio1’s Un Giorno da Pecora: "If Sinner has surpassed me? Yes, and it doesn&#39t end there, he can make the Grand Slam, he risks maybe in Paris but if he plays the way he is playing now there's none for anybody. Now è definitely the strongest Italian sportsman of any era and I certainly don&#39t cheer, on the contrary".

Pietrangeli is then asked about his criticism of the South Tyrolean tennis player for his alleged 'boring game'. Does he confirm? "Absolutely not, I only said that è today’s game to be boring – Pietrangeli’s answer -, specifying that however this è only my point of view".

But in short, è was then asked hosts Giorgio Lauro and Geppi Cucciari, who is stronger between her and Jannik? “È Impossible to make comparisons, let’s say that each è the strongest…in his era". Who è whoè canè beat Sinner today? "Given the way he is playing,” Pietrangeli joked on Radio1, “maybe only a sniper…".
