Tennis Star Camila Giorgi Faces Tax Evasion Charges

The 32-year-old Italian tennis player, ranked 26th worldwide, received her first tax warning on April 7, 2023, and has never filed a regular income tax return, making her a total evader, the document shows. The seizure, notified on June 26 by Paolo Bracciali, a delegated employee of the Revenue Agency's collection office in Florence, represents only an initial portion of her debt. Giorgi, who announced her retirement on Instagram on Saturday, has been unreachable for a month, with her whereabouts unknown—possibly in California or Argentina.

She resides and trains in Calenzano, near Florence, where locals have noted her prolonged absence. Her father, Sergio Giorgi, an Italo-Argentine Falklands veteran, also faces contribution shortfalls. The Florence prosecutor's office is evaluating criminal charges for unpaid taxes, while a separate case in Vicenza seeks trial for allegedly obtaining a green pass without vaccination, risking a double trial. father and coach Sergio, mother and stylist Claudia Fullone, and brothers Amadeus and Leandro—functions as a small holding centered on her career.
