Il 33-enne di Caldaro dopo il matrimonio con Michela Bernardi di Ortisei il 10 settembre 2016 si sente ancora di più a casa in Val Gardena. Seppi ritorna volentieri sui campi veloci di Roncadizza, sui quali ha giocato sempre benissimo e vanta un bilancio di 14 vittorie in 15 partite. L’unica sconfitta è quella contro il tedesco Benjamin Becker nella finale del 2012. Nelle finali del 2013 e 2014 rispettivamente contro Simon Greul e Matthias Bachinger, entrambi della Germania, si è imposto invece il beniamino del pubblico.
