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.

In your career you have a lot of good moments and bad ones. The important thing is to have enough motivation to keep working all the days with humility and trying to be a better player than before. I am going to try to continue doing this.

We'll try and be very aggressive, we'll try and speed up and change gears, and we'll see who's going to win.

In tennis, because of the way it's scored, I don't think that scoring one point out of luck is ever decisive in winning. But, of course, it depends on the moment.

My uncle developed the training philosophy. His idea of good tennis training is basically quite simple: you must try to gain time.

The young athletes are supposed to mature, to improve their personality.

When one player is better than you, at this moment, the only thing you can do is work, try to find solutions and try to wait a little bit for your time. I'm going to wait and I'm going to try a sixth time. And if the sixth doesn't happen, a seventh. It's going to be like this. That's the spirit of sport.
