Difficult days continue in the office for Matteo Berrettini. The Italian once again succumbed in the early stages in such a special venue as the ATP Rome 2026, this time against Alexei Popyrin (6-2, 6-3), plunging him into a state of mistrust that he detailed later in comments collected by Ubitennis. "It was a horrible day. This sport demands consistency, and with so many ups and downs, it is impossible to achieve long-term results. I did not maintain the intensity that characterizes me. The year started in a certain way, but the only way to move forward is by accepting these types of defeats. It's a shame it had to happen in Rome, but you can't choose," pointed out the Italian, who will face Roland Garros with many doubts in his tennis.
