Matteo Berrettini‘s campaign in the Wimbledon Championships has ended. The current world no.1, Carlos Alcaraz, ended Berrettini’s journey in the fourth round. However, given his past performances, it was somewhat surprising that the Italian tennis player advanced to the fourth round. Even Berrettini was impressed by the way he fared at SW19, and his supporters finally had something to celebrate. However, no one was more impressed than his girlfriend!

Melissa Satta, his girlfriend, left a supportive message on his Instagram post that was focused on appreciating the people who supported him through thick and thin.

Matteo Berrettini’s girlfriend shows her support despite his Wimbledon exit

The 37-year-old Italian television presenter was in London to support her boyfriend during his amazing run at Wimbledon. Berrettini’s hopes of claiming a Wimbledon title crashed following his defeat two days ago. But there was more to the story; reaching the fourth round itself is quite a breakthrough for the Italian tennis player, as he has been facing a lot of early defeats in the previous tournaments he has played.

Thus, after his exit from Wimbledon, he took to his Instagram account to share a thankful message for his fans. He shared pictures of himself from Wimbledon’s Centre Court where he battled the Spanish sensation, Alcaraz. He wrote, “Thank you for everything, @wimbledon, I will be back stronger next year. To all those who have supported me – you have helped me get through some tough times and I can?t thank you enough. See you on tour soon, Forza.”?

The Italian’s post garnered the attention of his fans, as many took to the comments to show their support. But there was one comment that stood out in the comment section. His 37-year-old girlfriend, Melissa Satta, also dropped a heart emoji on the post, showing her support for him.

However, the Italian tennis player also struggled with poor form and inconsistencies on the court before his successful campaign at SW19. While the 27-year-old suffered poor form on the tour, a lot of tennis fans pointed fingers and blamed his girlfriend for his downfall.

Berrettini’s girlfriend endured a lot of heat?

Wimbledon witnessed the 38th-ranked player regaining his past form. Previously, Satta was accused and viciously criticized for her boyfriend’s performance on the tour.

In addition, she received no sympathy from the Italian media, who blamed her repeatedly for Berrettini’s problems. However, the unprofessional criticism that the Italian television host had been receiving from sports fans and haters prompted her to respond and raise her voice. She questioned news headlines that targeted her and called it ‘unethical’.

Now, the couple will undoubtedly hope that people would view them in a different light as the 27-year-old is gradually rediscovering his form. Do you think Berrettini can make an impact in the upcoming hard-court swing? Let us know in the comments.
