i don't see any south italians here.

Thomas Fabbiano is Calabrese/Calabrian, Salvatore Caruso is Sicilian. Marco Cecchinato is also Sicilian but his surname is north Italian from Veneto, so he could be half Venetian, half Sicilian. The rest are a mix of north Italian (Fognini, Seppi ecc...) and central Italian (Lorenzi, Berrettini, Travaglia, and Vanni). Alessandro Giannessi is born in north Italy (Liguria) but his surname is Tuscan, Seppi is a German-speaking South Tyrolean. So the majority are central Italian.

I hope, Lord, that I have given as full an answer as possible.

They just look like normal white guys.

Thomas Fabbiano is Calabrese/Calabrian, Salvatore Caruso is Sicilian.

Caruso I could tell was southern when scrolling down the page, he stands out next to some of the others. Fabbiano actually could pass as northern.

I get confused about the regional differences,, my Italian ancestry is Tuscan and Abruzzo but I consider that Southern and Central.
