Lorenzo Musetti takes the place of Jannik Sinner in the Olympic expedition which already includes Matteo Berrettini, Fabio Fognini, Lorenzo Sonego and Camila Giorgi and Jasmine Paolini. The 19-year-old from Carrara, world number 63 as soon as he learned of the defection of the same age, immediately canceled the commitments made at the end of July when the Olympic tennis tournament in Tokyo will be played. Happy with the sudden opportunity: “For me, as for any athlete, the Olympics is a great opportunity, as is always playing for the blue jersey and fighting alongside my teammates”.
Federtennis was therefore able to obtain the replacement from the ITF and on Monday will be able to alternate Sinner with Musetti at the last minute and complete the quartet at the Summer Games in the best possible way. So as to also allow you to play doubles and give prestige to a movement that is reaping many satisfactions and promises to get others in the near future after so many difficult years.
