Nicola Pietrangeli, Jannik Sinner chooses private condolences

L’ANSA reported, reporting that it was learned from “circles close to the tennis player” that Jannik Sinner privately expressed to the family his condolences on the passing of Nicola Pietrangeli.

“The South Tyrolean champion – it reads – preferred this personal form, rather than the’use of his own social channels, as some of his fellow national team members have done”.

A choice, therefore, that favors confidentiality on the part of the world number 2, who over the past few months, while breaking all the records set by Pietrangeli, has received compliments from him but sometimes harsh criticism as well.

Sinner’s silence on the day of Pietrangeli’s demise, in the face of condolences from the rest of the tennis world, caused much discussion, and now that the “mystery” seems to have been solved, surely this choice will also be discussed in the same way.
