Rome, Jan 27 (LaPresse) – ‘Can Sinner win the Grand Slam? It could be a year to aim for. Before, when there was Nadal, Paris was a taboo for everyone, you had to think about the other three tournaments and the Grand Slam was impossible. Now there is no longer a Nadal, there are good players like Alcaraz and Zverev, but the others can't think of challenging Sinner. Basically, apart from Alcaraz, I don't see a player who can beat him on clay. Then on grass he has already shown that he is very competitive, he has already won in New York. The Grand Slam is very difficult, only Djokovic has come close. Before some young player can come to bother him, it would be ideal to seize this moment where there are not too many opponents up to the mark, at most one or two'. This is how Paolo Bertolucci, one of the ‘Four Musketeers’ of the team that gave the first Davis to Italy in 1976 and former and captain of the national team, guest on Radio Anch'io Sport on Rai Radio 1, on Jannik Sinner's triumph at the Australian Open. And on the Internazionali d'Italia ‘for an Italian player Rome is a very important stage, in the heart it comes after the Slams. Then it's a tournament that he couldn't play last year, I'm very sure that the date is marked in red on the calendar. It would be the icing on the cake'.
