“I can’t go anywhere without my pizza, you can count on that!”
There is no second guessing what Alex de Minaur’s favourite food is. The 24-year-old even enjoys a pepperoni pizza alongside pasta on a match day, he revealed to ATP Uncovered in the newest edition of the ‘What I Eat’ series.
“Pizza is the secret to the speed!” De Minaur said. “Big pepperoni pizza for me, I just like meat too much.”
The Australian also shared what foods he indulges in on those beloved ‘cheat days’, when De Minaur does not mind racking up calories.
“That’s when I really enjoy my food,” De Minaur said. “As many calories as I can, because that’s my time to enjoy what I eat.”
If you can’t find De Minaur at the courts, perhaps look to the nearest coffee shop because as the Sydney native stated, “Any day of the week, coffee is the most important thing. If not, I’m not waking up!”
