'Roger Federer is more emotional than Nadal and Djokovic,' said Filippo Volandri

Former world no. 25 Filippo Volandri became the Italian Davis Cup captain in January, ready to lead his squad at the Davis Cup Finals at home in Turin in November.

In a recent interview, Volandri spoke about the upcoming Italian stars Jannik Sinner and Lorenzo Musetti, praising their tennis and dedication for chasing the leading positions in the years to come. Also, he mentioned Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic, saying that the Swiss is more emotional than his great rivals, which makes him even more adored by the fans worldwide.

"Roger Federer is the same as he is seen on and off the court. His tennis is technically and biomechanically perfect. And the fact that he is more emotional in comparison to Nadal's and Djokovic's perfection makes the audience love him more. Lorenzo Musetti and Jannik Sinner will become top players.
