Pietrangeli: "If Sinner achieved a career Grand Slam, it wouldn't be a miracle."

Jannik Sinner won his first Wimbledon title , the fourth Grand Slam of his career, defeating Carlos Alcaraz in four sets in the final. A triumph celebrated by athletes, politicians, and others. Nicola Pietrangeli was one of the first: “Sinner is unbeatable. Right now, there's no one who can beat him, only Alcaraz could. He can play by giving the advantage,” he told Adnkronos. Then he added: “I'm happy, he's great, also because he's a clean and decent guy. What's better than winning Wimbledon and being the world's leading tennis player? If he wins the Career Grand Slam, I don't see it as a miracle ,” Pietrangeli concluded. Tonino Zugarelli , one of the members of the team that won the Davis Cup in 1976 (with Pietrangeli as captain), spoke about Jannik's performance: "Sinner deserved to win Wimbledon, both after this performance and after the one in Paris. Beyond that, the only regret I think he might have is not having won Roland Garros, because that would have been the Grand Slam, which is the most important thing for a tennis player and certainly not something you do every day." So, "Well done Sinner, but if he had won the Grand Slam, he would have made even more history."
Buonfiglio: "I'd like to meet him in person."“No words,” Lorenzo Musetti wrote on Instagram. “The dream of dreams, what a profound emotion to experience it with you, thanks to you, dear Jannik. Appreciating your every gesture on the pitch, your every word off the pitch, holding and kissing with you this wonderful Trophy that feels like Tradition, Value, and Honor. With you not only in victory, on the day of triumph, with you always. How beautiful to hear the speaker recite the formula: Champion 2025, from Italy, Jannik Sinner!” This is what the Minister for Sport and Youth Andrea Abodi wrote on X. “He is exciting, a phenomenon, a simple and determined boy on top of the world. I was sorry I couldn't go, there were no planes back tomorrow, the day of the National Council. As soon as I can, I would like to meet him in person,” said Luciano Buonfiglio , president of CONI. "Sinner is an extraordinary guy, one of the most intelligent I've ever met. A great man. I think he has all the time and opportunity to try to win a Grand Slam in the coming years. Having the strongest player in the world has changed the history of our tennis, and I believe even of sport, in our country. So grab your racket and plane tickets and keep traveling the world because you'll see the emotions you saw today for the next ten years," said FITP President Angelo Binaghi .
