World number 16 Matteo Berrettini answered what advice he would give to himself in his youth and to current juniors.


I was a junior eight years ago. How time flies (smiles). Actually, nine.


It`s a difficult question. It`s hard to name just one. But I consider myself very lucky because I met this guy (my coach Vincenzo Santopadre - ) when I was 14. I always joke, but I have to thank him. I never thank him enough for our work together.


But I think the main thing is that I enjoyed and still enjoy what I do. Of course, it gets harder and harder. At first everything is new, you play your first Slam, your first major tournament, then you start to feel the pressure.


You learn as a person, as a player and try to draw conclusions from what is happening. I`ll shut up now.


But the most important thing, at least for me, was that I took something into my luggage every day, and even when I lose, it`s okay because I have to learn some lesson.


I think this is the advice I would give. Even in the darkest days, look for something good, draw conclusions and try to progress.
