00:30Oui, il y a beaucoup d'hours spent sur la courte pour essayer d'améliorer le jeu et le corps
00:41et d'améliorer moi-même à être prêt pour le meilleur des cinq ans.
00:47Je ne sais pas si c'est le cas pour le tournoi.
00:53Je ne sais pas si c'est le cas pour le tournoi, mais les Grand Slams, comme je l'ai
01:00dit plusieurs fois, c'est la priorité, particulièrement les dernières années.
01:03J'ai toujours essayé d'être au pire de mes propres capacités pour faire bien dans les Grand Slams.
01:12Je ne sais pas si c'est le cas pour le tournoi et commencer par la compétition.

01:19Merci.
01:21Juste votre vue sur le 15-minute-protest.
01:23Quelle est votre opinion sur ce sujet ?
01:24Est-ce que vous partagez en ce sujet ?
01:26Et est-ce qu'on est sur le plan ?
01:28Non, je ne suis pas partie de ce sujet.
01:30Je ne peux pas commenter sur quelque chose que je n'étais pas partie de ce sujet.
01:40Je peux répondre si vous voulez.
01:43C'est probablement pour mon anniversaire.
01:50Je n'ai pas été partie de ça.
01:52Je n'ai pas été partie de la conversation, le planning ou le décision-making.
02:04Je ne peux pas commenter sur ce sujet.
02:07Mais ce que je peux faire, c'est réiter mon propre position que j'ai dit beaucoup de fois.
02:13J'ai dit que, comme un joueur, qui a été mon premier rôle dans ce sport depuis longtemps,
02:21j'ai toujours été sur le joueur du joueur,
02:23et j'ai essayé d'advocate pour les joueurs' droits,
02:28et une meilleure future pour les joueurs.
02:33Mais pas seulement les joueurs, mais les joueurs de tous les joueurs,
02:37les joueurs de tous les joueurs,
02:40particulièrement le tier 1 professionnel tennis,
02:45les joueurs de tous les joueurs de tous les joueurs,
02:47qui sont des joueurs de l'arrivée,
02:49qui sont souvent forgotten.
02:52Et nous tendons, quand je dis « nous »,
02:56je veux dire « nous »,
02:57je veux dire les médias,
02:58et tous les intérêts des joueurs du tennis,
03:02qui sont en haut niveau,
03:04qui ont parlé des prix pour les prix,
03:06du taux, de l'argent,
03:09et de la quantité les joueurs de tous les joueurs qui ne sont pas en haus,
03:12mais nous tendons à oubliert
03:14combien de personnes vivent dans ce sport.
03:18Donc je ne vais pas arrêter à mentionner cela
03:21ou parler de cela,
03:22parce que c'est le milieu de la professionnelle professionnelle
03:31à ce niveau fondamental, top tier 1, pour le futur de ce sport.
03:38Si nous voulons nourrir le futur, si nous voulons avoir les joueurs thrive
03:43de ce sport, et non seulement survivre, et si nous voulons aussi
03:48augmenter ou améliorer le sport en tant que l'équipe,
03:53et augmenter le nombre de enfants qui veulent enrôler dans le voyage
03:59de devenir un joueur professionnel, nous devons discuter, pour moi à l'heure,
04:05c'est le plus important sujet, c'est comment nous voulons
04:07le sport en un niveau grass-rout.
04:11Et pour cela, ce n'est pas seulement la question de les joueurs
04:18expressing leur content ou leur discontent, je pense que c'est nous
04:23comme un whole, Grand Slams, les governing bodies, les governing tours,
04:27les joueurs, les joueurs, les joueurs.
04:29Nous sommes très fragmented, c'est déjà assez complexe comme sport,
04:32comment la structure est sèche et comment nous sommes régulés.
04:39La fragmentation de la plus grande est vraiment me déroulée,
04:42je ne veux pas voir cela.
04:45Mais oui, nous allons voir et nous allons apprendre aussi du golf.
04:49Je pense que golf est un bon exemple de professionnel, individual, global sport,
04:55qui s'est passé et qui s'est passé, et qui s'est passé,
04:58dans des années très difficiles, en termes de la gouvernance,
05:03et qui s'est passé des tours et des joueurs, qui sont en train de participer,
05:07et qui sont en train de participer à une tour, si ils vont à une autre,
05:09nous avons vu ce qui s'est passé.
05:11Donc, nous allons apprendre de cela, nous allons essayer de être unifiés,
05:15et avoir une voix unifiée,
05:19pour trouver une structure et une future pour notre sport.
05:25Parce que maintenant est le temps correct.
05:26C'est le sentiment que je sens.
05:28C'est juste que ce n'est pas une ou deux choses qui s'est passé dans ce tournament,
05:34dont les joueurs sont partagés en termes de médias.
05:38C'est juste qu'aujourd'hui, il y a beaucoup de rumeurs,
05:42il y a beaucoup de sentiment sur ce qui s'est passé en termes de changement dans le sport.
05:46Et je pense que c'est quelque chose d'innevitable.
05:49Donc, je pense que nous allons pouvoir le faire avec le moins de tourbillage possible.
06:03Une question sur la préparation.
06:05Peut-être que la décision de ne pas jouer à Genève.
06:08Je sais que vous jouez en Australie et que vous n'avez pas joué.
06:10C'est vrai que vous avez fait que la deuxième semaine pour vous,
06:11vous avez fait la deuxième semaine sans déranger un set en place.
06:14Vous savez ce qui est plus que jamais.
06:16C'est votre deuxième deuxième année en Paris.
06:18Mais pouvez-vous me dire ce que ça vous a fait pour vous l'année dernière deux semaines,
06:21pourquoi vous avez fait la décision,
06:22et comment vous avez préparé et vous avez préparé sans très bien match play pour une nouvelle event?
06:30Pour être honnable, c'était une haired force.
06:32Je veux que j'étais a plus de jouer,
06:34mais mon corps ne pouvait pas aller.
06:36Je voulais aller me,
06:40process for for my injury so you know after Indian Wells it was yeah just not
06:49possible for me to compete for several months and that's that's the reason why
06:52and I really wanted to go to Rome to to give it a shot and try and you know see
06:59how I feel I mean I was far from being ready to compete but still I needed at
07:04least that one match which is just to you know have the score called by you know chair umpire
07:10and have experience of the nerves before I eventually come to Roland Garros which at that
07:15point I didn't know if I was going to be able to play or not and thankfully the response of
07:21the body and the preparation has been positive in the last 10 days so here I am and we'll see
07:29what
07:29happens I appreciate your preparations haven't been ideal Novak but when you see that color
07:38Sakharov is missing from the draw does that make you feel differently about your chances
07:46mm-hmm well he's a two-time defending champion of Roland Garros of course that you know it's a big
07:54blow for the tournament not to have him whether that changes my approach this tournament I don't
08:02I don't think it does significantly change to be honest because I've been through challenging times
08:09with my body in the last you know six to eight months so that was my primary focus or concern
08:16if I
08:17may say not not not much really thinking about whether I have better chances or not with Carlos because I
08:23feel like being here or not being here because I feel like if I'm you know if I'm healthy and
08:29I'm able
08:29to maintain that level of freshness throughout the tournament that obviously will not be the same at
08:37the beginning like it is in the you know towards the end of the tournament but if I'm able to
08:42somehow
08:42maintain that level of freshness and in progress and then I feel like I have always a very good chance
08:49you know and I've proven that in Australia this year where I was you know close close to win
08:55another slam so you know I always have that belief in me when I'm when I'm on the court
09:03Yannick Yannick just matched we were with his Golden Masters he's also on quite a streak you've had
09:09obviously some great streaks can you just explain the mindset when you're when you've won that matches
09:14that many matches in a row does the pressure build match after match or is it more the confidence
09:20building well I want to congratulate him again I mean I've done that on social media but again I mean
09:27it's an incredible feat for him and his team we've we've talked a lot about how impressive he he's on
09:38all surfaces
09:38and you know people may be questioning because of his game style whether the clay would be as dominant as
09:44hardcore for example but he has you know proven that that's also the case which is really amazing
09:52and yeah I mean I being one of the two guys that have managed in the history to to be
09:59the only ones to
10:00win the Golden Masters I know how challenging that is and how difficult it is so you know I really
10:06congratulate him for that because it's it's it's quite an achievement and he's he's really young
10:11you know he still has a lot of time ahead of him I think he's going for his Golden Slam
10:17as well here
10:18if I'm not mistaken as well so yeah he's in maybe the form of his life and you know without
10:25Carlos being
10:25here also increases his chances even more claiming more grandson titles and so we're all here to try to
10:34you know try to win against him and you know prevent him from from taking more titles and we we
10:40have
10:40witnessed yesterday night on the court that he has lost only for the third time this year against you
10:47know Monfils and Sweetolina and Exhibition and I told him that on the court that if he doesn't step up
10:54that he's going to lose against Guile now but jokes aside I also want to mention sorry
11:10I just want to say a few words about Guile as well that has been a friend and rival and
11:17someone I
11:18really admired and grew up with since the age of 13 14 was a wonderful evening incredible atmosphere
11:26and he deserved every bit of that celebration of his career that we experienced last night so
11:31he was insisting on us playing that game that was first time I ever played that game
11:36but and it was fun it was really fun for all of us to be there for him
11:40he deserved it so just a little a little message for Guile because he he truly deserves that not
11:49only as a tennis player but as a as a human being and somebody that has you know touched so
11:54many
11:55people's hearts has respect from I think everyone in men's and women's locker room of you know across
12:04all the generations he has competed with I mean I don't I don't know anyone that really doesn't like Guile
12:10so
12:12one of my favorite players to watch incredible athleticism just I'm looking forward seeing
12:19seeing him perform in his last Roland Garcia
12:28this was sort of a game style question Novak you've it seems like from the outside you've played with a
12:32lot of aggression
12:33the last few years and I just wondered how conscious the decision that was whether that's just a kind of
12:38natural thing that developed yeah just kind of how that how that came about
12:44I think it's it is natural and logical and rational I think I mean to to be
12:51stepping into the court more and trying to take the ball early take my chances
12:55I mean I'm not getting any younger that's for sure so you know the body is obviously as well
13:00challenge more challenging nowadays for me to handle in long matches after long matches particularly
13:07you know to recover quickly it's not as fast of recovery as it used to be so I just I
13:13know that
13:14that's the kind of game plan and desirable tactics particularly in the big matches it's hard to always execute it
13:25I
13:25mean I have it in my mind I know I'm not maybe a natural servant volleyer and stuff but I
13:30try to do that as well
13:34it's just that I have such a confidence in my defense and always had throughout my life and then sometimes
13:41that plays against me
13:42because I then need to run more than maybe I should and strain my body further but yeah I mean
13:50it's it's it's it's something I've been working on as well you know short balls trying to take early and
13:55and put pressure on the opponent and it helps when it's working
14:04well I want to believe that for most of my career and actually this is the way I've been brought
14:09up and thought tennis early in my childhood is to be close to the line and try to take the
14:17ball on the rise
14:19I haven't played like that maybe throughout the entire entirety of my career but I've always tried to be
14:28the one that dictates the point you know of course it was hard to to to do that against all
14:35the players but against most of them I try to try to do that so
14:38I like to believe that that was the case and that's how I feel so it wasn't really hard for
14:44me to make that extra
14:47adjustment in terms of being more aggressive on the on the court
