SNicola Pietrangeli’s funeral home has been set up on the Foro Italico field named after him, and there is a constant coming and going of people who wanted to pay homage to the tennis champion who passed away at the age of 92. «It was what he wanted, staying here was his wish: on his field where he played and won. He wanted to meet Aznavour because he was his legend. He was a cumbersome father but in the good sense of the term. He has always been there for us. You don’t realize until now how many people loved and supported him, those who didn’t like him didn’t understand him.

Controversy over Sinner’s condolence message? I prefer not to comment” these are the words of his son Filippo, moved in front of the reporters.

«Dad was a comedian, he always managed to attract everyone’s attention. He was a man who enjoyed himself all his life. For 15 years he was also president of Tennis&Friends because he was always very attentive to health and prevention” this is the memory of his son Marco.
