Talking about the 21-year-old, he said, “Lorenzo is happy and so am I, but it’s not easy to control everything, neither for me, nor for him, nor for his parents. There were a lot of things to plan: home, life, and maybe he wasn’t focused on tennis. Everyone is different. Fritz also became a father at a very young age, just like Khachanov.”
