Matteo Berrettini has been one of the protagonists this past week in Bologna as part of the team qualified for the final phase of the Davis Cup. The current world number 43 looks forward to his upcoming weeks on the tour, especially focusing on the final phase where Italy defends the trophy. Berrettini speaks at a press conference about the secret of the Italian team, what he takes from Bologna, and what his near future holds.
"It's a very nice tournament for all of us to give our best in Malaga, although I think one name is already on the list (laughs). He deserves it for what he has done this season. Personally, I have taken advantage of these months to try to prove myself and be the best version of myself. When I'm not playing, I continue to try to support from the bench because that's exactly what being a team player means."
"This is one of our secrets, along with the great work that stands behind us: coaches, doctors, physios, and mental trainers. They make us feel at home and also give us the opportunity to take a breather when we need it because the schedule is very, very tight," Matteo Berrettini explained, as reported by Ubitennis.
His upcoming tournaments
"I will play in Tokyo and Shanghai, and then we will see. For now, I am registered for Stockholm, Vienna, and Paris. What do I take from Bologna? A lot of awareness of having given everything for this team. I carry the satisfaction of knowing that the team believes in me. I must acknowledge that I have done a great job with my team in recent months because it was by no means certain that I would come back to win." With nothing to defend after missing the end of the last season due to injury, Berrettini aims to continue accumulating minutes on the court to gain confidence, thinking about having a healthy season next year.
