00:00 I have been honest and for me nothing changed. It's only a positive start.
00:07 It's just one match after a year that I played quite well.
00:18 If we take all the circumstances that have been before that match, it has been a very positive match.
00:30 It's just a match.
00:34 The most important thing today is to stay healthy.
00:41 My way to approach that didn't change at all after this match.
00:49 My way to approach it is to try to enjoy every single day that I have the chance to be on court.
00:58 If I am able to play more matches, it will be more helpful in terms of recovering.
01:04 Of course, you need to recover if you want to be competitive.
01:10 For me, my goal is still to be competitive in the medium term.
01:18 If I am competitive, fantastic.
01:21 But it's something that will be a big surprise for me if I am competitive at a good level.
01:29 Let's see. Day by day. Today is a positive day. Let's see what happens tomorrow.
