The words of Paolo Bertolucci

Anticipation is growing as to whether or not Jannik Sinner will participate in Roland Garros. In this sense, giving positive news was Paolo Bertolucci during Sky Tennis Show. "Everything seems to be all right, in days he will tryà to resume the racket in hand with the’ok of the doctors".

"One thing è certain: from now on, they won’ t listen to him anymore; since he wants to play all the time (laughs, ed.), but he’ ll be the one to listen more to the advice of his team and doctors. If everything will go as hopefully and if on the field he responds in the right way, then he will go to Paris", he added.

After the great disappointment experienced at the Internazionali d'Italia, where he è was forced to raise the white flag due to a virus, Musetti meanwhile è is ready to get back on track. At the ongoing Piedmont Open, he è is the No. 1 seed. He wants to have a great tournament, to arrive in top physical and mental condition at Roland Garros where he è will be called upon to defend many points.

"I’m not going to Roland Garros to defend the points won last year but I’m going there to go as far as I can and, why not, try to get past the round of 16. In a Slam I have never been able to do that. However, right now, my goal è to do well here in Turin", his words at a press conference at Circolo della Stampa Sporting in Turin.

Carrarese è was also asked about Sinner. The two have known each other all their lives. The comparison between the two è of long standing but, at this time, it seems improper: "The comparison with Sinner there'è always has been. Comparing him now to Jannik to little sense becauseé he è almost No. 1 in the world, won a Slam and had more important experiences than mine. We also have two different tennis styles".

Lately, Musetti è has been much criticized. There'è those who think he should change the coach and those who ask him to be more concrete when it counts. The person directly involved shoots straight: "The criticism has always been there, sometimes even ungenerous. They have been telling me to change coaches for five years and they still haven’t tired of saying it".
