Angelo Binaghi dreams with Jannik Sinner and Matteo Berrettini

The words of Angelo Binaghi

FITP president Angelo Binaghi, at the presentation of the Sardegna Open tennis starting April 29, spoke about the return to success of Matteo Berrettini, triumphant in Morocco: "Yesterday we recovered a great player, è the one who started a cycle. Great guy, he also proved it by following the Davis team when he could not play".

"A strong tennis player, of great charisma and humanit": now we will also need him on clay and grass, he who è a specialist. Then with him we also have to defend the Davis Cup", concluded the number one of Italian tennis.

Fitp president Angelo Binaghi had also spoken to Corriere dello Sport about the Jannik Sinner phenomenon: "È the easiest and the most difficult to manage: easy because é he è an extraordinary person, intelligent, polite, with a team that è the best in the world. So è he è in the ideal situation to handle the most difficult situation possible: that of an outstanding champion in a country like’Italy".

The Internationals are approaching: "We have made ourselves available. When he plays in Italy he must be able to think only of the field. He must be defended, as we have done in the past. In September from the attacks of a part of public opinion for not playing in Davis. The same ones who now tell him “how cool you are. We helped him after Melbourne to make those dutiful institutional transitions as painlessly as possible. Now we have to defend him from the people".
