The words of Mattia Bellucci

Mattia Bellucci, after his winning debut in the main draw of the Us Open, dreams big: "In terms of level, of exploits, I knew I could play at high intensity against strong players. What I’m trying to fre è keep a stable level, for spikes I’m pretty good at. In the last few weeks I’m putting together a lot of close spikes that I don’t mind".

Should he beat O'Connell as well, he could take on Jannik Sinner in the third round. "I take this opportunity because some time ago statements of mine were misinterpreted. For me è an example, he is helping me because he makes constancy his mantra, and I who am whimsical lack in that. Even my coach gives me examples related to Jannik. For us Italians è nice".

Bellucci in Supertennis è described himself as "very moody, managing emotions for me è important. I used to realize that I was either too serious or too free. I am working with a mental coach, Giuseppe Vercelli".
