Elena Pero Has Died: Farewell to Sky’s Tennis Commentator

Elena Pero has died at the age of 60: Sky, where she had worked for years, made the tragic announcement of the passing of the sportscaster, a beloved voice of tennis in Italy. “Farewell to a colleague, a friend, an extraordinary and unforgettable person.”

“Elena Pero is no longer with us. Her voice—the voice of tennis—will live on forever. She was 60 years old. She never missed a broadcast, not even while she was ill. The last time we heard her—just as you did at home—was at Wimbledon, where she celebrated Jannik Sinner’s second consecutive victory, just as she had done for his historic first win on July 13, 2025 —alongside Paolo Bertolucci, with whom she formed, over more than 20 years of commentating together, the second formidable duo of her career.”
