“Honestly, grass is a surface that I love.”

“It's not very comfortable playing all sweaty and having sweat drip from your face and get to your eyes.”
“I feel like every person has his own identity and every person has his own taste in music.”

“I'm confident when it comes to serving and volleying, moving in.”
“I really understand journalism and this world. I won't lie to you, sometimes it's difficult receiving the same answers, having the same things going on. I kind of find myself repeating the same answers, repetition, over and over again.”
“My mom actually gave me a lot of discipline in my game. That's what I believe helped me a lot: discipline. Which, in Greek culture, is not that common, I would say.”
