PODCAST - Pablo Carreno Busta Is Master Of Montreal

PABLO CARRENO BUSTA ON HIS FIRST MASTERS 1000 TITLE - ‘It’s very important to be positive all of the time. It’s not my best season this year, I lost some matches that in other years I probably wouldn’t have lost, but I just continue to keep believing in my team, in myself and on my game’.DAN EVANS ON DEALING WITH LOSING - ‘When I was younger I used to waste a few days dealing with a loss, but you look at the very, very good professionals out here, they’re not, I’m sure it hurts, but they are back at work the next day looking ahead and the beauty of this sport is, if you choose to play the next week, you have another opportunity, so that’s how I look at it’.JACK DRAPER ON ADAPTING TO LIFE ON TOUR - ‘I think it’s just exposure to this level really. Playing futures and the challengers, the actual tennis level is pretty good but it’s just they are probably not there every singles point whereas at this level if you’re not there every point you lose, so it has just bee about training the mind to be there every single point and hopefully I’m getting there’.FELIX AUGER-ALIASSIME ON HIS DAD’S ACADEMY IN QUEBEC CITY - ’To see the young kids playing some good tennis, having a smile on their face, being happy to be there, really makes me happy, sometimes more than winning matches because I feel like it’s not only for myself but making a difference for others, for these young kids, inspiring them, it’s the best thing and I could talk about it all day’.NICK KYRGIOS ON HIS NEW FOUND DESIRE TO WIN - ‘I’ve really been driving the bus with my training and how much I’ve been working back home and it’s showing on the court and I’m really enjoying it, it’s a roller-coaster every-time I’m out there because I’m giving my best effort, so I’m getting to that vulnerable place of really wanting to win and I think the last couple of years of my career I struggled to get to that place, but now I’m really enjoying it’.FABIO FOGNINI ON TRYING TO QUALIFY FOR THE DOUBLES IN TURIN WITH SIMONE BOLELLI - ‘One of my best goals this year is to try to help him and to go to the ATP Finals in Turin because of course we are in Italy and we are Italian and I think this is going to be a really good achievement for the end of our careers DAVID GOFFIN ON AIMING FOR THE TOP AFTER INJURY - ‘Now I’m playing some good tennis. I want to come back where I was, let’s try to be in the top 10 again, that would be fantastic. I think the last few months I proved I have the level to come back really close to the top 20 and why not top 10, so let’s continue and we’ll see where we can go’. DANI VALLVERDU ON SETTING REALISTIC EXPECTATIONS FOR STAN WAWRINKA’S COMEBACK - ’The goal is to not get back to how he used to play, but the goal is to maximise his potential now and to be competitive on tour, whatever that might be, we’ll see what the limits are and how good he can by physically and how good his tennis can be on the court as well, so we’re not looking at it comparing it to what was possible in the past’.-Podcast presented by Brian Clark-Interviews by Jill Craybas, Ursin Caderas, Seb Lauzier & Chris Bowers-Auger-Aliassime Feature by ATP Uncovered-Commentary by Kevin Skinner
