You have to adjust to where you are but the French are all together - the guys and the women. It's good.

It took me time to adjust and to realise it was not going to happen like it did in the juniors.

I think you always have, you know, new players. Every year you see new faces, juniors coming into the seniors. I was one of them at the time long time ago now.

There were many occasions in my career where I could have given up, where I asked myself whether I would ever make it.

I think I have handled things pretty well last year and this. What I have to do now is try do it even better.

Unlike in my young days I'm not able to eat, drink and sleep tennis.

I have been amongst the best players in the world for 8 years. None at that level played as many ties as I did.
