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

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.

This trophy is so special in the world of tennis and it feels great.

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

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

The more kilos you have to move around, the more it weighs on your knees. Then of course in terms of stamina, the way you move around, it's a little extra. It might not be much, but when you exercise with two, three extra kilos, you can feel a difference; it's important.
