Jasmine Paolini’s coach revealed a chat with number 1 in the world: “A house, a car to drive, small spaces to live peacefully in his world”
The secret were the small things: a house instead of the hotel hotel, two machines to have more spaces and less thoughts. Especially in the most complicated moment, the one during the Cincinnati tournament, when the threat of the doping case presented himself on the head of Jannik Sinner. Accidental positivity to the clostebol case, the ability to manage the pressure and indeed bring home the US title: the days to a thousand at the time of Sinner told them Renzo Furlan, coach of Jasmine Paolini, guest at the transmission of the Sky Tennis Club. The technician revealed a chat with number 1 in the world during another historic moment of our tennis: the week of Malaga, in November, which saw the Azzurri win the Davis Cup and the blues raise the Billie Jean King Cup to the sky.
Scale needle

Furlan had the opportunity to speak closely with Jannik, asking him immediately how he had done, a few months earlier, to win the Cincinnati tournament with “The Mannaia he had between head and neck”. Sinner replied: “Cincinnati was the balance of the scale, things could get hurt or good. But I was exonerated, and therefore they put themselves well. For the first time in that tournament we took a house and not a hotel, and the organization gave us two machines, one I was driving it and one the team “. In the guide Jannik finds evasion and relaxation, immersing himself with his mind among the curves of Montecarlo: one of his favorite pastimes. He also confessed it to Furlan: “Being able to obtain those small spaces, what little time for myself seems to be a nonsense, but it gave me a lot of peace of mind”.
Before the semifinal

Then, after the chat with coach Furlan, the time came to take Davis. And even there Jannik did not betray the expectations: three wins out of three meetings in the singular (including that, which has now become a very pleasant habit, in the semifinal against De Minaur) and the exhilarating one in the double together with Berrettini, in the quarterfinals against Argentina. Furlan saw him in the Bordocampus and described him as “a very good boy, of an extraordinary education. He always greets, he is really the boy next door ”. Paolini’s coach allowed himself another anecdote in number 1 in the world, returning with the narrative to the days of Cincinnati: “Sinner witnessed the hearing from 4 to 10 in the morning. The semifinal against Zverev in which he won 7-6 in the third set was exonerated and then faced the same evening. ” Six hours of hearing, over three hours of play to grab the pass towards the last act of the tournament: “Only one person who has quality can do it”. Number 1, in fact.
