At the meeting with journalists he had said to a match proposal: “As long as I don’t bring Sinner.” Jannik Sinner It is the number one in the world, but his surname in English also means sinner. The blue tennis player was then asked if he would like to meet the pontiff and he had said: «Of course you really want to put me in difficulty with these questions.
