As a tennis player you have to get used to losing every week. Unless you win the tournament, you always go home as a loser. But you have to take the positive out of a defeat and go back to work. Improve to fail better.

I never expected to win a Grand Slam because, for me, I was not good enough to beat those guys.

I am really close friends with Roger Federer and also with Benoit Paire.

I like to go to Mauritius on holiday.

My favourite film is 'Le Diner de Cons,' a French movie.

I always try to find the positives in losing a match but it's not always easy.
