And to add to the relatively short, but undeniably flashy list of Italian stallions for tennis, in the tradition of the always fabulous Fabio Fognini (he could saunter like leisurely Mussolini), Adriano Panata — who not only did the improbable by winning botht the French and the Italian Opens in 1969, but did the impossible by beating Borg twice on clay– and “Making Waves” Matteo Berrettini, we now have Jannick Sinner, an amazing carrot top, whose only prop is reach that is simply inhuman. We have not seen such a mixture of raw power, defensive prowess, great reflexes and mental tenacity since Pete Sampras, Boris Becker, and Bjorn Borg morphed into one. Impressive win tonight over crowd favorite Tommy Paul.
