"A beautiful moment", in some ways unrepeatable for Italian tennis which, after the triumphs in the Davis Cup and Janick Sinner, also celebrates the rebirth of the women's movement enhanced by the first master 1000 won by Jasmine Paolini.
Celebrating it on the day after the Tuscan tennis player's victory in Dubai is the Billie Jean King Cup captain, Tathiana Garbin, who underlines the continuous growth of all her girls: "It was pure joy, I celebrated this moment with her beautiful for Italian tennis and beautiful for our girls who have won a very important title for the whole movement''. Tennis in pink who has already demonstrated that they have changed gear with the final reached in the Billie Jean King Cup: "I put my character, but my girls even more so.
It's nice to convey this resilience - highlights Garbin - that's what I call it, this desire to overcome difficulties in a proactive way and with a lot of energy.
This is the beauty of my girls and compliments must also be paid to the federation which has always believed in them and in me." And the federation itself with the president Angelo Binaghi exalts the magical moment experienced by Italian tennis: "I am very happy for Jasmine and also for Renzo Furlan, they created a combination that has achieved goals that initially seemed impossible to achieve.
It is a great success for women's tennis therefore for Tatiana (Garbin, ed.) and Vittorio Magnelli who have taken charge of the sector for a good number of years.
I think they are reaping some really positive results.
Let's not forget that a few months ago the extraordinary result of our girls' final in the Billie Jean King Cup was overshadowed by the victory of the Davis Cup. Therefore - adds Binaghi - Jasmine's victory is not a bolt from the blue, but it is the confirmation of a positive trend that is also progressing and growing stronger in women's tennis.
It's a moment when everything is fine, we can't lose anymore.
Incredible things happen - concludes the number one of federtennis - even doubles players win tournaments.
It seemed like a gap in men's tennis and here too we overturned what were completely wrong impressions.
It is an extraordinary moment that affects all sectors of our federation."
