Sinner gives the Pope a racket: "Shall we play?" And Leo XIV smiles: "Better not here"

The world's number one tennis player received in the Vatican by the Pontiff, a great tennis fan

Sinner received in the Vatican by Leo XIV. The champion gave a tennis racket to the Pope and then asked him: "Do you want to play?"

The Pope showed him the room with lamps and other furniture and laughingly replied: "Let's leave it, it's better not to here."

Leone also added laughing: "With this I live at Wimbledon they would let me play..." , alluding to the fact that at the prestigious London tournament tennis players are required to enter the court dressed in white.
