The touching message of Berrettini to Sinner and Paolini excites Italy

Paris – In a moment of great sporting and human intensity, Matteo Berrettini decided to break the silence with a message that has moved the whole world of Italian tennis. While Jannik Sinner and Jasmine Paolini continue their extraordinary journey towards glory at Roland Garros 2025, the Roman champion sent them a sincere and powerful message:
“Play for me too, you will make it.”

Five words, full of meaning, which were enough to make the emotion explode between the Italian fans and deeply touch the two blue tennis players. Berrettini, still struggling with physical problems that prevented him from participating in the Parisian tournament, has chosen to make his support felt in a simple but extremely intense way.

In a post shared on social media, accompanied by a photo that portrays him while watching Sinner’s match on television, Matteo expressed all his admiration and closeness to his colleagues: “You are the pride of our country. Even if I can’t be there, my heart is with you.”
The reaction of Jannik Sinner has not been long in coming: “Matteo is always with us, his message gives us even more strength.” Jasmine Paolini, visibly excited, also wanted to respond with gratitude: “Playing for him too is an honor. His words accompany us every point.”
The gesture of Berrettini has strengthened even more the link between the protagonists of Italian tennis, in an edition of the Roland Garros that could go down in history. Never like this year, tennis Italy dreams of great, pushed not only by the talent of its athletes, but also by a moving unity of intent.
With Sinner and Paolini both one step away from the final, Berrettini’s message becomes a symbol of hope, friendship and national pride. And if the glory really comes, it will also be thanks to that “play for me too” who touched everyone’s hearts.
