On the sidelines of the draw for the main draw, the South Tyrolean tennis player spoke about the problem that forced him to skip the Games: “Not attending the Paris Olympics broke my heartit was one of the goals of my season. Unfortunately, we have to accept that it went like this.”
“Tonsillitis was difficult – added Jannik -, I took antibiotics for almost a week and I didn’t touch the racket for days. When I left for Canada I wasn’t in perfect condition, now I’m much better and every day that passes I feel stronger. I’m happy to be here, where I won my first Masters 1000, I arrived early and with my team I’m preparing everything in the best way to be able to defend the title and continue to be consistent, as we have been throughout the year”.
Finally, on Musetti’s bronze: “This means that everyone in Italy is happy and so am I, as I am for him. I couldn’t watch the match because I was training, but as soon as I can I will definitely watch it, as well as if I can I will certainly watch the final of Jasmine Paolini and Sara Erraniwe’ll see my program on Sunday,” he concluded.
