Italian tennis player Matteo Berrettini has been clawing up his way into the high rankings. The 25-year-old has been involved in some great matches recently. Unlike most of the upcoming players, Matteo has the ability to adjust more conveniently from the clay to the grass. 

Recently, Matteo Berrettini spent an evening at dinner along with his girlfriend Ajla Tomljanovic and Croat Donna Vekic. However, there was a comical incident that took place which caught the attention that evening. The moment occurred when Matteo was served a drink, which seemed like a cocktail.

Interestingly, the drink was served on a stand that had two long and thin legs. Upon seeing that, Matteo spontaneously compared the holdings to his legs, as his legs are thin too. His two companions at the table burst into laughter as they saw the funny side to it, and it was sporting of the Italian to troll himself.

Berrettini will be entering the Wimbledon Championships 2021 high on confidence after winning his ATP Masters 500 title in Queen’s last week. The 25-year-old is a versatile player and has the ability to adapt to the various surfaces played on Tour.
