17-year-old Federico Cina commented on his wild card appearance at the Miami Masters. He lost to Grigor Dimitrov in the second round, 1-6, 4-6.
“It’s amazing because I’ve always watched top players on TV. I’ve never seen them live before. This is really cool, and I’m enjoying every moment here.”
“Djokovic is my idol. The way he plays is unparalleled for me.”
Last week, Cina reached his first Challenger final in Heraklion, where he defeated Aslan Karatsev.
“It was my first Challenger final. I played great, and it gave me a lot of confidence. I also learned a lot, which is wonderful,” the official ATP website quotes the Italian.
