"My body is feeling good..."

Berrettini to @tennismasterr in Stockholm: "My body is feeling good. As long as I’m playing like this—running, fighting, screaming—I’m good. I’ve been in this sport for a long time and my body is paying the bill now.” On the conditions in Asia: “During the Asian swing I experienced conditions I’ve never experienced in the past. Hangzhou was actually hotter than Shanghai, but the tournament was smaller so nobody knew about it. It was so hot in the first days, we couldn’t believe it. Luckily, they had a roof and it was raining a lot. When conditions are that extreme, we (ATP Tour) have to do what the Grand Slams did—introduce a heat rule or something like that. We don’t want players getting injured or struggling like that. In the end, health comes first, but also the show—if players don’t feel well, they retire. We don’t want that.”
