These are days of celebration and festivities in Italy. There is no country more in vogue in the world of tennis at this moment: they have achieved a historic double Copa Davis 2024 - Billie Jean King Cup (for the first time in their history, as if that weren't enough), they have the ATP world number one and the fourth-best WTA player in the world, and they can also boast of a very young generation that is increasingly making its mark in the later stages of major tournaments.

Do they perceive themselves in that way? Do they, perhaps, hesitate to proclaim themselves as the most powerful nation in the world of tennis? The truth is, they do not. Or at least, that is what we can deduce from the latest statements of a jubilant Angelo Binaghi, president of the Federation. It has been many sacrifices that this organization made to sow the seed of future tennis: ten or fifteen years later, they are now reaping the fruits of an impeccable investment at the base of the pyramid, filling the country with lower-level tournaments and strengthening education in schools and academies through both national and foreign coaches.

"Right now we are the most powerful nation in the world of tennis. It is a success for the whole country, and we must be very proud of it. And I must emphasize that it is also a moment of success for the girls: Paolini won in Dubai, reached the finals of Roland Garros and Wimbledon, won the Olympic gold with Sara Errani, and now they gave us the BJK Cup. It is a time when everything is going well, an extraordinary success. We win every week with men and women, but the most extraordinary thing of all is that our boys and girls are amazing off the courts. They are cheerful, calm, and respectful to their opponents. They are good guys who present a different image of our country than what is normally perceived. Honor to both captains, Volandri and Garbin, who built two very cohesive groups", proudly stated Binaghi in an interview with RAI 1.

SINNER'S PRESENCE, MOTOR OF EVOLUTION

Alongside him appeared another person with reasons to celebrate. That person is Matteo Berrettini, who has detailed in recent days his ordeal with injuries and how painful it was to watch last year's success from the sidelines, but who has now chosen to focus on what Jannik Sinner's presence means for all his compatriots. "Jannik stimulates us and pushes us to always do better. The goal is to get as close to him as possible, and I hope next year will be good. I have realized that when I am in good physical condition, the level is there. We have the fortune and honor of playing with and against the best player in the world". Italy's next team event, by the way, will be a United Cup where they will not count on their top male assets (Flavio Cobolli would be the number one), but they do add Jasmine Paolini and Sara Errani to secure points in the women's matches.
