Thursday February 29, 2024

Double winner (1959, 1960) and double finalist (1961, 1964), Nicola Pietrangeli left his mark on the Roland-Garros tournament, both through his performances and his personality. Very popular with the French public, the Italian remembers with emotion this bygone era when sporting exploits and social evenings coexisted at Régine or at Crazy Horse. Nicknamed “the captain”, he claims to have had fun throughout his career and recounts his Parisian epics through the prism of juicy anecdotes, experienced on and off the court.
