This week on the ATP Tennis Podcast...
NOVAK DJOKOVIC ON HIS RECORD 378 WEEKS AT NUMBER ONE – “Any achievement that is linked to the history of the sport that I love is very flattering, very fulfilling and I’m very happy because I’ve dedicated my life to achieving great things in tennis. So it’s flattering to be among the legendary names like Steffi Graf, but I keep going, moving on, and trying to take on the next challenge.”
TOMAS BERDYCH ON FELLOW CZECH JIRI LEHECKA – “I think after a bit of a low period, after myself and Radek Stepanek, I think he’s definitely one who can carry the flag. He is very young, but what I’ve seen it’s really the way he’s composed with his game. I like his fitness preparation, his body being strong, and he has a similar style to my game, so I think he has a bright future ahead of him.”
HOLGER RUNE ON WHAT HE HOPES TO ACHIEVE BY THE AGE OF 30 – “I’m hoping for a lot of Grand Slam titles and a lot of success for sure”.
ALEX MOLCAN ON WORKING WITH NOVAK DJOKOVIC’S FORMER COACH MARIAN VAJDA – “He brings a lot of professionalism into the team. His thoughts and his experience with Novak is incredible to listen to. I’m always asking questions about what he was doing in certain situations. I’m not trying to be like him, but of course I’m still asking Marian a few things about him.”
LORENZO MUSETTI ON BEING A TOP 20 PLAYER – “It’s a dream because you know scoring a best ranking is always a positive. I’m playing good but I have to keep working hard to try and get more. The next step is the Top 10 and I just need to keep working and keep dreaming and let’s see if I can make it.”
MICHAEL RUSSELL ON TAYLOR FRITZ’S ANKLE INJURY AHEAD OF WINNING THE 2022 INDIAN WELLS MASTERS – “When we went to practice, getting ready to play Rafael Nadal, Taylor feels the ankle… He basically goes down on the ground and says that he can’t move. The fact that we were on centre court and a lot of the media were there early for the women’s final, they started to pick up on that and I started to get loads of messages from my friends in media.”
