Playing against a compatriot and coming in as a favorite because of the favorable head-to-head is difficult to handle. I know that it is never easy to play against the number 1, but I always feel good when we play against each other; it’s like his ball rhythm favors me. Generally I play well against him. Every time we’ve faced each other I’ve enjoyed our matches. I feel like I’m going to go out on court on Sunday, play really well and win. If I play my best tennis, I consider myself good enough to be a Grand Slam champion.”

It will be a different feeling, hopefully, it’s nothing to worry about“I’m quite relaxed because if there’s something bad, you immediately feel it a bit more, so let’s see what it’s like,” he added.
