Fognini and a very important announcement: Is his retirement approaching?

Fabio Fognini was for many years the standard-bearer, the spearhead of an Italian tennis hungry for new successors. The Italian inspired his country with his magical tennis and irreverent character, paving the way that players like Sinner now follow. At 37 years old and outside the top 100, the transalpine made an important announcement on social media: this will be his last time at the ATP Roma 2025, where he will debut tomorrow against Jacob Fearnley. Therefore, we can infer that his retirement is imminent, which is sad news. It's time to enjoy Fabio's last drops of magic.
