Beatrice Vittoria Gatti, from Lombardy from Quanta Village, reached the final
We have reached the decisive moment. On Saturday, the Città di Crema tournament will choose the winners of the singles of the 2024 edition, which in any case will be remembered as one of the best ever for Italian tennis. In the international Under 16 event, included in the Tennis Europe calendar, we will once again have two Italians on the top step of the podium, as had previously happened in 2017. Among the boys, the title will be an entirely Lombard question, between the Bergamo Tommaso Falardi and Giovanni Enrico Boi from Pavia, both scored in three sets but both with a certain authority in managing the decisive phase of the match. Falardi, who even started from the qualifiers and then eliminated the number 1 of the tournament (the Portuguese Jorge Vanine), also eliminated the other Italian Michele Maniglia, emerging as dominator in the third after losing the second set. However, Boi’s comeback victory over his son Mattia Pescosolido, with a 2-6 6-1 6-1 which tells the story of a two-sided match.
Among the girls, the last act will be between Ginevra De Angelis from the Marche and Beatrice Vittoria Gatti from Lombardy, with the latter beating Sara La Noce without particular difficulty, overcoming her with a regular 6-2. Gatti, 15 years old, a member of Quanta Village, made her debut a few months ago in Florence in the international Under 18 circuit, and returning to her age category she demonstrated that she has an edge over the opponents she has faced so far. point. But the decisive match for her title presents her with an opponent who has also shown excellent things in recent days in Crema. Ginevra De Angelis, registered with Tolentino and number 8 on the scoreboard, is yet another product of the inexhaustible Marche nursery, capable of churning out non-stop talent among both boys and girls. Her semi-final against Beatrice Cocomazzi lived on the edge of balance, with the defeat only surrendering at the tie-break of the second set and she was therefore unable to play her chances in the third set. In doubles, titles for the pairs Baroglio/Lampiano Garbarini and Logrippo/Sabbatini. The singles finals on Saturday: from 1pm for the girls and from 3pm for the men (always with free entry).
