The allegations against the retired Italian tennis player Camila Giorgi are becoming increasingly serious. Now the 32-year-old’s former landlord is talking about absurd experiences with the Giorgi family.

Camila Giorgi ended her career a few weeks ago by deleting herself from the list of active athletes at the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA), which is responsible, among other things, for doping controls. Because the Italian has been missing since then and is presumably in the USA, there are wildest rumors about the sudden resignation of the former world number 26.

According to consistent reports, Giorgi owes the tax office around 500,000 euros. On the other hand, she is facing a court case in Italy because she allegedly forged Covid vaccination certificates. A week ago, the Italian spoke out and said: “There are so many untruths circulating.” At that time, it was not yet known that her former landlord was also making serious allegations.

Where is she?

Giorgi lived with her family in a villa in Calenzano (Tuscany), which their father Sergio had rented in his name. It all started when neighbors called the owner to alert him that there was a crane and delivery truck in front of the house. “It was a shock. When I arrived, there was no one there and the house was half empty,” he told the daily Repubblica. “But it got even worse: furniture and carpets were piled on top of each other in the garden and exposed to the rain and wind. They had probably already packed their containers full and didn’t know where to put things.”

According to the owner, the robbery was not reported to the police. “I am discouraged. They are probably abroad and we will never see them again. I don’t want to waste any more time and resources. We thought we were safe because we rented the house to a well-known person, an athlete of international stature. But things couldn’t have been any worse,” the man is quoted as saying.

Sergio Giorgi responded to the news, but the answers were sobering. “He said they were items of low value. Disgusting behavior, because I suffered not only financial but also emotional damage.” In total, this amounts to 50,000 to 100,000 euros, as the Giorgis would also owe six months’ rent. “It’s a surreal situation,” is how the owner sums up the overall situation.
