00:00 I want to project myself on 2024 too,
00:02 to say that the next step is to be able to win a Grand Slam again.
00:06 From my point of view, we had a very good season in 2023.
00:10 This period, Rotterdam, Doha, Dubai, Indian Wells, Miami,
00:14 it was exceptional, really,
00:15 and it puts you in a really, really, really good season dimension.
00:21 If you put that as a base, you can be disappointed
00:23 because it was less linked in the same way,
00:26 but there were still good tournaments and good victories over the course of the season.
00:30 The goal, as we say, in view of this 2023 season,
00:34 it is obvious, it is to do at least the same good season,
00:38 win Master Mils, perform well in Grand Slams,
00:41 and in fact, when you're in the first roles,
00:43 it's to win the biggest tournaments, that is to say Grand Slams.
00:47 That's the goal, yeah.
00:48 Clearly, yes.
00:49 Yannick and Carlos are young, they arrive as if in a trance,
00:53 with a game that moves.
00:55 There is another Noba who is there with all his experience,
00:59 who is the defender, the potential winner of all the Grand Slams.
01:03 And when you take the last matches, the last finals played,
01:08 whether it's at the US Open, whether it's in Vienna, in Beijing,
01:12 or even the semi-final in Turin,
01:14 we realize that it's this kind of match, against this kind of opponent,
01:19 that we will have to win to be able to claim to win a Grand Slam, a new Grand Slam.
01:24 After, what will happen next season with them,
01:27 with Carlos, with Yannick and Novak?
01:31 The future will tell, I can't know, because there are questions.
01:34 Is Yannick able to do what he did at the end of 2023 in Grand Slams?
01:39 It's a question everyone is asking.
01:41 And Novak, will he continue?
01:43 I want to say, what would stop him?
01:45 Does he have the ambition to play until the age of Novak, for example?
01:48 Nobody can know.
01:49 Even him, and even if he said it today,
01:51 it would be a value of the moment,
01:54 because you don't know how life makes people evolve.
01:58 In any case, from the point of view of experience and physics,
02:02 he is actually entering a third quarter of his career.
02:07 I would say that we are approaching his maximum potential.
02:10 For me, there is still room for progression,
02:13 in terms of the game,
02:15 but this game plan is related to the mental, if I may say so,
02:19 even if I don't like that word, which sums up too many things,
02:22 but on certain visions of his game,
02:24 certain beliefs to be able to dare to do new things,
02:28 so to dare to fail at the beginning, perhaps,
02:30 to do new things that could potentially
02:33 bring a benefit in terms of the game,
02:36 to meet the demand that opponents offer him.
