TIME TO SAY GOOBYE TO OUR FRIEND FEDERICO LUZZI


I’d like to take a minute to send my condolences and a big hug to the family of Federico Luzzi. He will be buried today after passing away 2 days ago. To me, it was quite difficult to believe the news, I knew it wasn’t a joke but at the same time I didn’t want to believe it was true.
I got to train with Federico a few times and I remember him as a great person, fun to be with and very Italian. All of us who are here in Paris have been talking about it and all of us are in shock and very upset.
One of us is gone, someone who was part of our tennis family.
Federico, wherever you are, I hope you're resting in peace.
Rafa
