Renzo Furlan celebrates Jasmine Paolini

Renzo Furlan extols Jasmine Paolini

Renzo Furlan, speaking at Melting Sport microphones, praised Jasmine Paolini, his student and fresh winner of the gold medal at the Paris 2024 Olympics in the doubles tournament, paired with Sara Errani. "È it has been a year full of satisfactions,” he stressed, “Jasmine has taken tennis to a level we did not expect, and the medal è the logical consequence of a path that began some time ago".

"I don’t know if there are any secrets, but I think basically the key is great communication,” added the Tuscan coach. “We have the same way of looking at things and we face any challenge by comparing ourselves a lot. A coach canò make a difference if he develops empathy with his player, with a trusting relationship on both sides; the player must believe in the work of the coach, and vice versa".

"Olympics? I thought Jasmine could medal in singles as well. The gold medal in doubles è the result of a proposal made a year and a half ago by Sara Errani. The’goal was to face this path in the best way, and seeing what they did before the Olympics, they left me with good feelings" concluded Furlan.
