After Jannik Sinner, Jasmine Paolini, the young and talented Italian tennis player, also created a real average earthquake in Roland-Garros, categorically refusing to wear advertising sponsored by Tesla by Elon Musk during the tournament.

Paolini explained that tennis is a pure passion for her and that it does not want a great company to influence its performance in the field in any way. “Tennis is my life, my love, and I want to play without distractions or external interference,” said firmly.

In addition, Paolini has underlined how important it is for her that her fans focus exclusively on her performances and matches and not on a sponsorship or an external brand. “I want my fans to focus on the games you play, not on a large company like Tesla,” he added, making his position very clear.

This decision infuriated Elon Musk, who only a few weeks ago had already shown his disappointment for the refusal of Jannik Sinner to wear the same announcement. Musk has commented Paolini’s choice hard, stating that “he will regret having refused this contract”.

The story has aroused a heated debate between fans and insiders in the sector, divided among those who support the right of athletes to choose freely and those who believe that the refusal of such an important sponsorship is a strategic error.

Paolini, however, remains firm in her decision, underlining that for her, respect for sport and concentration on the court is before any commercial agreement. The young Italian thus demonstrates once again his determined character and his dedication to tennis, gaining respect for many fans all over the world.
