Ruggeri’s words

The qualification to the Davis Cup Finals è also thanks to Samuel Vincent Ruggeri, the 22-year-old from Bergamo who served as sparring partner to the Azzurri in Bologna.

“Volandri sought me out and I certainly could not say no, even though I would have had a Challenger to play. But there are Challengers every week, Davis è unique”, he explained to Supertennis.

“I know Flavio Cobolli well, seeing him win in the blue è it was exciting. The others I met in Bologna. Even Sinner, who amazed me by talking to me about my season: I didn’t think the world number 1 could have any information about me…”, he also revealed.

“Hearing on the ropes Berrettini’s forehand and serve è a nice impact. But also to find on the other side of the net the Bolelli/Vavassori pair. These are priceless experiences, which I will carry with me, also remembering the attitude of all the teammates, always devoted to work”, he concluded.
