It hurts a lot. Or you need to be more raw: it breaks your soul to see that black and white photo with the profile of a man who transformed a sport in Argentina. Or rather, who created a sport in our country.
Why William Ville It’s not just tennis. Guillermo Vilas is much more than a racketa pair of orange-dyed socks, the sweat dripping from his forehead despite the eternal headband and dripping only from the cuff of that left-handed arm that at one point seemed to be made of iron.
It hurts to see him like this, with the wrinkles that invade his face, with that kiss full of tenderness that rests on his wife’s temple.
The photos are from 2020 and in October of last year they had been re-released by the company itself. Phiangphathu Khumueangthe Thai woman he married in 2005 and with whom he has four children.
Who knows what was the reason why he decided to show them again. Many will say that reality shouldn’t be hidden, that the cruel disease that torments the most skilled left-handed is that and that a tree cannot cover the forest.
but run away a tear of resignation -and sadness- when Guillermo Vilas is seen today in his self-exile from Monte Carlo. Just a few blocks from where one of the biggest stops on the brick dust circuit takes place this week. Yes, that same tournament he won twice. When everything has changed. Forever.
