Giacomo Naldi, former physiotherapist for Jannik Sinner who was dismissed following the doping case that targeted him, has spoken out. He is back on the ATP tour as he now works with Francesco Passaro.

In an interview shared by Punto de Break, he states: "Even during the process, we always maintained good relations. I always behaved properly and never sought attention.

These are my first official statements since everything happened. I occasionally heard remarks taken out of context, which generated hate and controversy on social media.

Unlike others, I never said anything about what happened, and I believe my honesty has been evident and appreciated. I spoke with Sinner, and it was cordial; we shared private matters.

Beyond all this, the human connection remains after a case that involved us, and it was just an unfortunate series of coincidences, we are aware of that.

I saw Cahill, who has always been very kind, and I crossed paths with Ferrara (Sinner's fitness trainer). I come from the basketball world and always tried to instill a team spirit in the Sinner team, and that's one of the things I'm most grateful for.

Even though our collaboration has ended, there is no resentment. We can't change what happened, but we must move forward. Life goes on.

Note the lack of compliments directed at Ferrara. Pretty clear that he still blames him for providing the Trofodermin that he applied to his own wound when treating Sinner.

Since February 2022 and the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, Ukrainian sport has been heavily affected by human, structural and economic losses. Tennis has, of course, not been spared. While Ukrainian athletes have had to rethink their entire organization, an entire country, behind the scenes, has had to adapt and change its training conditions. This extends all the way to the highest level, where professional players have spoken out, trying as best they can to help their nation.

Struggles with injuries and lack of money: the double punishment for tennis players far from the Top 100 stars

A tennis player's income depends solely on his sporting results. In the event of injury, the daily life of those far from the Top 100 can become extremely complicated.
Davis Cup: between reforms, criticism and national culture
Davis Cup: between reforms, criticism and national culture

From controversial reform to fiery statements, the Davis Cup continues to divide. Between nostalgia for the old formats and unwavering love for the jersey, players share their truths about a competition that, despite everything, still makes hearts race.

As we move to the end of this month and also closing out the year I am wishing all of those following me a Merry Christmas and a Happy/Healthy New Year.

Let's make that wish for all 2000 plus players hoping for 5 wins each day. Hoping ŵhen we open the results page to see all green, and no red. And especially NO CANCELED matches.

From me and my rotti JAZ, I bid you all good night, and see you in...

I love tennis

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
