Yesterday, in the heart of the German capital, a final took place that left everyone speechless: Jasmine Paolini, one of the most promising Italian tennis players, suffered an unexpected defeat that surprised public and professionals. And now, a few hours later, Paolini’s coach, Marc López, revealed an unexpected detail that had a devastating impact on the performance of his student.

According to López, the cause of Paolini’s disappointing performance is not only linked to the power of the opponent, but to a fact that happened shortly before the start of the game. “Jasmine was hit by an episode that deeply shook her from a psychological point of view,” said the coach in a press conference. “This has put it in a state of psychological fear that influenced its concentration and determination during the match.”

Tennis, as we well know, is a sport where the mind plays a crucial role. The psychological aspect can often be as decisive as technique and physical preparation. In this case, it seems that Paolini was unable to overcome an invisible obstacle, an anxiety that paralyzed it and prevented her from expressing her best on the field.

The mysterious “detail” revealed by López concerns a situation that occurred shortly before the final: Paolini would have been approached by a person of his circle, who launched her words who, although not clear in detail, disturbed her. The tension accumulated at that moment had repercussions on its performance.

López, visibly embittered, expressed solidarity with his player, underlining how important it is to manage emotions in high pressure moments. “Jasmine is a strong girl, but she is also human. At that moment, she needed more psychological support, but unfortunately the situation has escaped hands.”

This defeat, unfortunately, is not the only difficulty that Paolini has faced in recent months. But the coach is optimistic about his future, declaring that this episode can only help her grow and become stronger in the next challenges.

In conclusion, what happened in Berlin is a strong reminder of the importance of mental preparation in tennis. Despite the difficulties encountered, Jasmine Paolini still has a promising career in front of him. With the right support and better management of emotions, it could soon return stronger than ever on the international circuit.
