He played for the youth team of Italian football club Torino until he was age 13. (lorenzo-sonego.com, 01 May 2021)

Turned professional in 2013

He began playing tennis at age 11. (lorenzo-sonego.com, 01 May 2021)

He was initially a footballer but he was encouraged to pursue his love for tennis by his father, and coach Gipo Arbino. "I spent two years playing both football and tennis. Then I became passionate about tennis and I had to choose, and I decided to continue with tennis because it is an individual sport that gave me so many emotions, so many satisfactions. I liked being on the court and fighting, and so I decided to take the path of tennis." (lorenzo-sonego.com, 01 May 2021; theopenjournal.it, 13 May 2020)

To compete at the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo, and to play at the 2021 ATP Finals in Turin, Italy. (corrieredellosport.it, 23 Apr 2020; gazzetta.it, 21 Apr 2021)

Philosophy:

"I have a lot of fun playing tennis and therefore I give the same importance to all points. In this way I detach myself from the result and I only think about winning the next exchange, and then the one after and then the one after that." (sportface.it, 18 May 2021)

General Interest

General
FOOTBALL ADVANTAGE
He played football for the youth team of Torino in Italy until he was age 13. "Football gave me the coordination, the movement of the feet, the speed. And the nastiness - there is physical confrontation. You have to be tough so as not to be overwhelmed." (corriere.it, 31 May 2021)

SPECIAL RELATIONSHIP
He has been coached by Gipo Arbino since the start of his tennis career. "Gipo was the first to believe in me when I was 11. I will never change coach, not even if they guarantee me that with a new coach I would become number one in the world. There is total trust, we love each other, I would not be able to see myself with anyone else." (corriere.it, 31 May 2021)
