The Roland-Garros 2025 final between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz was one of the most emotional and dramatic matches in the history of tennis. A duel that saw the two young champions face each other for almost six hours, with the final result seeing Alcaraz prevail. However, despite the defeat, Sinner was surrounded by the support of his teammates and fans, including a particularly touching message from Matteo Berrettini.
Berrettini, who followed the match with great attention, decided to break the silence immediately after the end of the match, addressing Sinner with a message full of support and affection. “Jannik, it was not the best result, but you remain the number 1 in Italy. Your strength and determination are what makes us proud of you,” said Berrettini, trying to console the young tennis player, who was visibly moved and could not hold back his tears.
The match, which saw extraordinary intensity and a no-holds-barred fight, took an emotional turn when, at the end, Sinner expressed his frustration for the defeat. In a moment of great emotion, the Italian tennis player began to cry not only for the result, but also for the affection and support he received from so many fans and people close to him.
“It wasn’t the best result, but I know I’m loved and supported by all of you,” Sinner said through tears, visibly touched by Berrettini’s words and the messages of encouragement he received from his teammates and supporters. His reaction showed not only his passion for tennis, but also his humanity, making him a champion not only on the court, but also off it.
Berrettini added that Sinner’s strength lies not only in his sporting results, but also in his character and the way he faces challenges. “Today you fought like a true champion, and for us you remain number 1. The results will come, but what matters is the path you are taking,” Berrettini said, demonstrating great solidarity between the two tennis players.
Sinner’s defeat, although painful, has not affected the respect and admiration that the young tennis player has earned in Italy and around the world. With the support of his teammates and fans, Jannik Sinner continues to be a symbol of determination and passion, and his career is destined to still reserve many surprises and successes.
At a time when Italian tennis is experiencing a golden age, with Sinner at the center of a new generation of champions, his message of gratitude and the support of colleagues like Matteo Berrettini are a sign that, beyond victories and defeats, the true value of an athlete lies in the heart and resilience he demonstrates, on and off the court.
