If you are looking for franknesssense ofhumor and responses (on the microphone) out of the ordinary, the solution for you are the press conferences of Flavio Cobolli. Not even the solemnity of Wimbledon He manages to curb the irreverence of the Roman tennis player, extraordinarily spontaneous When he has to tell himself or talk about tennis. After the victory against Kazakh Beibit Zhukayev (6-3 7-6 6-1), someone has also tried to ask him a serious question, to ask him for the many standard head tennis players who have already returned home. But the answer was unsettling as his straight on the field: “In fact, it changing room And empty. It is super. The tanks are freeit’s nice, I don’t have to queue. “And down laughing.
Equally hilarious was the story of the night that preceded his debut in Wimbledon: “I took a Sole with the house. I had a bad experience in sleeping. I woke up at midnight from heat and I got on the Sofawhich was of skin, fresh. Only that every 20 minutes I had to change position ”, the beginning of his anecdote. The laughter is not lacking, Cobolli continues:“ Then at a certain point I put myself 5 minutes in the fridge. I opened it, I refreshed me a little in front of me. So I slept only 2 or 3 hours. There is no air conditioning. We no longer come back next year. “
The precedent from “Admin” Social ATP

Then three questions to Sinner. The first on its favorite surface: Sinner replies “cement” and the Roman tennis player nicely replies “not for me”.
