Sportal.it heard, exclusively, from Diego Nargiso to take stock of Spain’s new promise and, in particular, the match with Jannik Sinner.

Diego, what is your idea of Rafael Jodar?”

Now the new Spanish promise will face Jannik Sinner…
“For Rafael it’s a test, an important one. He challenges the one who at the moment, compounded also by the injury to Carlos Alcaraz, is the strongest in the world.”

How would you face this challenge if you were the young Rafael Jodar?”
“I would try to stay on the court as long as possible to understand as much as possible where I am compared to Jannik Sinner’s level. Every point, every minute is valuable for his growth.”

About growth, you also started, some time ago. a new challenge…
“Yes, for the past year and a half I have been senior sport manager at the Polytechnic University of Turin. We are working with FITP to become their scientific referent at the level of innovation and technology. I married this project with great enthusiasm.”
