“Against Federer, is not easy to share the fan's love. He is a local around the world in every tournament.”
“I really appreciate everyone who cheers for me all around the world at every tournament.”
“I think the other guys, they have advantage to me when they play with six or eight racquets in one match.”
“At the height of my career, prior to the injuries, I never thought I could break the barrier of Federer, Nadal, Djokovic and Murray, and now I did it with everything that happened.”
“I take the really sad moments with me to the court. I'm able to transform all that energy, and from it create strength, faith, and a will to honor everything I've gone through. I use the memory of those painful moments as a weapon to keep fighting.”
“The worst moment was in 2015 when I was close to quitting this sport because I couldn't find a way to fix my wrist problems. I had been suffering a lot. I got depressed for couple of months also.”
“When you play the same tournament as Federer, Murray, Djokovic and Rafa, they have more media than me, for sure.”
“I just want to play tennis in front of the big crowds.”
“My coach from the time I was a kid was a specialist of hard courts. He teach me a different forehand than the rest of Argentinian players. That's why I am able to work better on hard courts.”
“The people stand up from the chairs when I hit good winners. I like to do that.”
“My wrist, I need stability in my wrist, more strength and flexibility, everything.”
“I trust my doctors, my team, my physical trainers.”
“You never know what could happen in the future.”
“I take lots of pictures.”
“I've never done a fake injury or something like that. If I look tired, in pain, it's because this is true.”
“My family and friends help me a lot to never give up.”
“The tennis life is very short, as I say. And my first goal is always to be a good person.”
“It is so difficult when you are out for a year, not just because you are not playing, but because other players are still playing. They are in competition all the time, so when you come in again and try to play them at the same level, with the same intensity, it is very hard.”
“To me, the U.S. Open was always the Grand Slam I wanted to win most.”
“I know how good I am when I am 100%.”
