The American tennis player, a Lazio supporter, told how his passion was born after the victory in the quarterfinals at the Internazionali
Among the surprises at the Italian Internationals there is certainly one Tommy Paul. But the American tennis player on the courts of the Foro Italico also stood out for having declared his sympathy towards Lazio. After the quarterfinal victory against Hurkacz, with a “C’mon Lazio” as a dedication on camera, in the press conference he told how he approached the biancocelesti colours.
“The favorite player is Immobile. I’m not sure how you say it (smiles). Last Sunday I went to see a match (Lazio-Empoli, ed.) and I really enjoyed it. I became a fan because of Reilly Opelka. In a way she made fun of me. I didn’t even know how it started for him. I think he had a friend here in Rome who loved Lazio. Reilly actually locks himself away and watches a lot of games. Yeah, I mean, it was really fun. I met a couple of people involved in the organization, I learned a little about the history of the team, of the teams here in Rome. It was a fun thing for me”.
