That's painful always to lose.
Is always the motivation to play better and better. But I think we are in a very good way to keep winning matches. That's most important thing for me.
For me, that's the most important thing, feel myself happy when I am playing. If I am healthy and I feel myself competitive, I am happy. Then is obvious I would like to win. But I know if I am in finals of important events, the normal thing is I finally win titles.
Something that works for one person could be a disadvantage to another.
I am satisfied the way that I am playing. Is obvious that there is always things to improve.
What happened happened. Important thing is what can come.
Seriously, I am not a person that I think much about what happened or what didn't happen or what could happen. I happy about the things that happened to me. I'm a lucky person, for sure, for all the things that happened to me during my life.
It is no longer enough to play very well. You need to be able to give an answer at all times and everywhere. You cannot hide. This has something to do with maturity, and that is something you only acquire over the years.
The young athletes are supposed to mature, to improve their personality.
You know, a lot of things changed. What never changed is the illusion to keep playing tennis, the illusion to keep doing well the things, and the illusion to be in a good position of the ranking and play these kind of matches.
Since I was a kid, I've wanted to do sports for a living. In the beginning, I played a lot of soccer, but in the end I chose tennis. I love sports in general ... But tennis is my passion.
I'm not the best player in the history of tennis. I think I'm amongst the best. That's true. That's enough for me.
My tennis is aggressive, though I wouldn't say that it's more physical than technical. I rely more on technique than physique, but being physical is always a help to me.
I play because I have fun, if I don't have fun on the court, there is something wrong. I am just a 19 year old boy that likes to do what he likes, nothing else.
I played almost four hours today, ... Im very, very tired.
I have no interest in becoming a tax exile and living somewhere I don't want to - I just want to be at home with my family.
I don't think about how going to be the match. I think about try to do the right things to win. I don't think about how easy can say or how tough can say. I go on court. I try my best.
I will do as I usually do. Tomorrow is going to be a day like any other day.
You just try to play tough and focus point for point. Sounds so boring, but it's the right thing to do out there.
I was passionate about soccer. I still am. Odd, though - playing soccer always made me much more anxious than playing tennis. On soccer days, I'd be out of bed by 6 in the morning, all nervous. But I was always calm when it was time for a tennis match. I still don't know why.
I am a guy who likes to do what I am doing with passion, whether it's a soccer match with friends or golf.
I am No. 8 in the world. I am not No. 100.
I'm only superstitious on the tennis court.
I am going to fight for important things.
It's the same old story, all you think about is money.
