The news of the day has shocked the tennis world. The passing of Nicola Pietrangeli at the age of 92 has flooded social media with farewell messages to the Italian who won Roland Garros in 1959 and 1960. One of them was Rafa Nadal: "I have just received the sad news of the passing of a great Italian and world tennis player. My deepest condolences to his entire family, his son Filippo, and the entire Italian tennis family. Rest in peace, Nicola."

Another, like Fabio Fognini, also wanted to send a message: "Dear Nick, a large part of our history has gone. This photo in Monte Carlo means everything to me: your example, your wit, your light. You taught us all what it really means to win. Have a safe journey, legend!" Also, other Italians like Flavia Penetta, Lorenzo Musetti, or Jasmine Paolini have shown their sadness over the loss of the first Italian figure in the world of tennis.
