I think the most important is to remain as stable and consistent as possible in terms of emotions, because when you're working, if you work well, you're always rewarded at some point.

Tennis runs in cycles. There are victories. There are disappointments.

The most important for me, it's to fight, give my best on court until the last point.

I have been working on my backhand since I was the age of five. And it's a disaster, my backhand, so I'm working on it.

Sometimes you go through a few tournaments without having a five-setter.

Of course, I want to win a Grand Slam.

Sometimes you cannot do anything because the guy in front of you is playing well and he's doing the right things to make you play in a bad way.

I do a lot of conditionning in the off season with my coach but there a lot of exercise and they are specific to each individual.

I played soccer and could have probably made it to the top league.

I would have liked to have been a pro firefighter.

I like to play against Juan Monaco.

Of course, I believe injury has stopped me winning more tournaments.

I hope I will have a family. A house, with a garden, will be nice. And I would love a barbecue! Just very simple things and a passion to work hard.

One of my goals was to be in the top 100 - just once!

My parents weren't rich at all.

It's important to stay normal and live in the real world. I know this is where you find happiness.

You can see Bjorn Borg, but when I watch some game of him I want just to take a nap, no?

No, I'm not a bad loser.

I have a lot of respect for who beats me and that's it.

I enjoy every time on the court.

I'm not the most talented on the tour but I like to go to war.

For me it is always fun to be on the court, and fight, and try to get every ball.

When I fly, it takes me two, three days to recovery, to be good physically.

My parents always taught me not to be a good tennis player or the best in what I'm doing, but to be polite.
