What does Adriano Panatta do today and where does he live

In Treviso, where he lives, Adriano Panatta has opened an American-style sports club: the Adriano Panatta Racquet Club. “Looks like a typical club on the California coast” – said the former tennis player – “It has tennis courts, padel, beach volleyball, spa, restaurant and swimming pool and it is one of the few clubs where anyone can enter without being a member, even just for a coffee”. Panatta admitted that he is very comfortable here: “Especially for the human dimension of daily life. Everything is easier, the quality of life is high. I have my company, my house, my friends. My passion? Getting around by bike, every day. I take incredible walks. And we are very close to Venice and Cortinawhere I often go”.
