Flavio Cobolli lands at Wimbledon with reinforced confidence after signing the best weeks of his career. The Italian, one of the great revelations of the season, arrives convinced that he can once again play a significant role in London, and much of that optimism stems from a very clear idea: the grass at the All England Club is quite different from that of the rest of the preparation tournaments.

"I think the grass here is not normal; it is completely different from that of all the tournaments we play before Wimbledon. It is much slower, and you can play much more, so I believe that can help me bring out my best tennis," he explained in an interview with Ubitennis.

Cobolli recalled feeling very comfortable on these courts last year and is confident in repeating those sensations. "I did it last year, and I hope to achieve it again, even do better. The transition from clay to grass is tricky, but I like it more and more, and gradually one gets used to it," he stated.

The Italian also stated that he arrives without the pressure of having to equal the great results obtained during the last few weeks. "I don't feel any kind of pressure. I already have enough with myself to add more due to results. What I need is to repeat everything I did in Paris: how I trained, how I lived my days off the court, and how I managed the tough moments during matches. That is the key," he commented.

Among his recent training sessions, he highlighted a very special one with Novak Djokovic. "He has always been my reference point and I respect him a lot. I try not to make mistakes, always put the ball where it needs to go, which makes me concentrate more than usual. In fact, it was the best training since I arrived," he confessed.

He also revealed an interesting conversation with Alexander Zverev after Roland Garros. The German asked him if he had already overcome the defeat in Paris, and Cobolli responded naturally: "I told him I hadn't been angry for a single minute. I lived that experience differently, and I hope that helps me play many more finals."
