He reappears (but only virtually) and is immediately dismissed: «I am happy to formally announce my retirement from my tennis career» he writes on Instagram.
Camila Giorgi breaks away from her embrace with fans approximately a month after her disappearance. Reason? A dispute with the taxman. Now that the tennis player turns out to be exposed on the (treacherous) side of the taxes to be paid, not even dad Sergio can help. Indeed, as we will see, the lifelong coach, the legendary dad, could be equally vulnerable.
It happens, in fact, that the mystery of the last month on the disappearance of the talented tennis player (withdrawal from the tennis international competitions of the Foro Italico) has a simple and unexpected solution at the same time: the taxman who seized 480 thousand euros from her at Federtennis .
The Italian State has been on the trail of Camila Giorgi since April 15th, when the Florence Revenue officials (she lives in Prato) should have delivered all the relevant documentation to her. Tax bills processed. Accounts to be paid. And that notice, to be taken very seriously, of an investigation that could lead to a trial. What happens to many others happens to the girl with the magic racket. A tax audit revealed a series of sensational crimes. Camila has never filed a regular tax return as required by law. Never a compilation. Never a payment. Prodigy on the field, ghost for the taxman. But that is not all.
Because the tennis player, very active on social media, would be the heir of a family lacking in terms of taxes paid or to be paid. Even her father Sergio, the Argentinian with a passion for competition who is her coach, would have more than one unresolved problem with the Revenue Agency. Thus the sudden escape from competitive spirit seems to have the flavor of an extreme fight with the treasury.
Argentinian father, mother from Macerata, Camila may now have left Europe for California. How long this leak will last is unclear. Just as it is not clear what the athlete really has in mind. But the facts, lined up one after the other, are these.
If that wasn’t enough, there is also the enigma of the missing complaint. Although Camila was nowhere to be found by the authorities, she was never reported as missing. The police have not received any complaint regarding her disappearance. Why?
Social media was busy with her after a post on Instagram, published on the day of the start of the tennis internationals, showed her, as usual, in great shape, in a lace dress with a vaguely retro glamour. Then, nothing more. Now Camila’s escape becomes a matter for the magistrates. Because, as is known, the taxman warns the taxpayer in default by offering him to pay the amount due, perhaps in installments. But then, in the event that he does not reach an agreement, the risk is a conviction for escape. So goodbye sponsors.
There is another chapter that casts a shadow on Camila’s reputation. It was 2022 and Giorgi would have sensationally evaded anti-Covid vaccinations. For this reason, her name appeared together with that of the singer Madame (Francesca Calearo) in the records of the Vicenza Prosecutor’s Office in a case of forgery (the doctor involved threw away the vaccines instead of immunizing the patients). The green passes turned out to be fake and the magistrates requested a trial on March 2nd.
The tennis player with seven hundred thousand followers – all on Instagram – has always taken care of her all-round career and image. A year ago, interviewed by Corriere, you said: «A phrase of mine has become a meme on social media: “I don’t follow tennis”, I don’t deal with tennis. In the sense that once the tournament is over, I’m talking about something else. It’s normal. An extra trophy doesn’t change my existence, tennis is a job and winning makes me happy, obviously, but the meaning of life is another. Every time I win a title, they ask me: what changes now? It does not change anything! Change that tomorrow I’ll do something else.” She was vaguely bold but always much loved by the fans, she had claimed: “My life is not just sport… There is a lot of envy around, people talk without knowing us and without knowing.” Now, perhaps, the time has come to explain.
