Jasmine Paolini Has Epic Champagne Bottle Fail as Thousands Watch on at Italian Open

Jasmine Paolini’s sensational victory over Coco Gauff in the Italian Open final was already a moment to remember — but it was her post-match celebration that truly stole the show.

After defeating the American star in straight sets to claim one of the biggest titles of her career, Paolini stood beaming during the trophy ceremony. As part of the celebration, she was handed a large bottle of champagne to mark the occasion — and that’s when the comedy began.

In a delightfully human moment, Paolini struggled to pop the cork. Her first try failed, then her second attempt didn’t work either. With the crowd rallying behind her, she gave it one more go — this time shaking the bottle vigorously before finally managing to release the cork to a round of cheers from the amused audience.

Adding to the festive atmosphere, Paolini was seen dancing joyfully to the Italian music playing in the background, fully soaking in her home-soil triumph. She then took a massive celebratory gulp straight from the bottle, spilling some in the process, much to the delight of the crowd who erupted in laughter and applause.

It was a moment that perfectly captured Paolini’s jovial and bubbly aura. It was a light-hearted celebration, following a dominant performance against one of the sport’s biggest names.

As she left the court drenched in champagne and cheered on by her fans, Paolini didn’t just leave with one trophy but two, as she managed to clinch the women’s doubles title as well. Not only win it in style, but after her doubles triumph Paolini, jumped straight into the pool from a diving board with her team.

It’s clear as daylight, that she deserved that champagne bottle, after being crowned a double champion in her home country.
