00:03Jannik, tu n'avais pas beaucoup d'offres en clé depuis l'année dernière,
00:07donc comment avez-vous passé tes jours depuis le rome triomphe sur le Sunday ?
00:12Oui, je suis venu à mes parents' place quelques jours,
00:16je suis resté là et je suis arrivée à l'année dernière,
00:19donc j'ai essayé de récover un peu,
00:23et j'ai toujours essayé de récover,
00:25et j'espère être prêt pour le premier match.
00:33Bonjour Yannik,
00:34j'ai déjà été une période très intense pour vous, pour une bonne raison,
00:40mais est-ce que vous vous sentez physiquement, mentalement,
00:44vous êtes-vous prêt pour cette tournée ?
00:45Et combien de temps est-il peut-être pour trouver l'énergie que vous avez besoin pour l'année prochaine
00:51?
00:51Oui, j'espère.
00:55Ça a été une période très longue, mais très positive.
00:59Je suis heureux d'être dans cette position,
01:01je pense que c'est toujours mieux pour être dans une position où vous venez,
01:07et vous commencez à sentir très bien, mais vous perdez quelques rounds.
01:15Je pense que j'ai essayé d'avoir une bonne balance maintenant,
01:20à la practice courts, avec la compétition,
01:23j'ai compris quand même pour la compétition,
01:25et je suis heureux d'être prêt pour les premières premières.
01:29Je suis très heureux d'être là,
01:30c'est une très spéciale tournée,
01:32depuis la première fois que j'ai joué ici.
01:35Mais je pense que l'excitation vous aide à trouver un peu plus d'énergie
01:43pendant la tournée.
01:44Merci.
01:45Merci.
01:46Merci.
01:49Merci.
01:49Merci.
02:00Merci.
02:01Merci.
02:04Merci.
02:33Jannick,
02:34Jannick,
02:34are you limiting your media appearances to 15 minutes today?
02:37And if so, can you tell us why?
02:39Yes, I think many players are doing that.
02:44But it's nothing against journalists or anyone against you,
02:50you know, we are very happy to do,
02:52we are happy to do the obligations,
02:55what we have to do,
02:56we are just limiting.
02:57that's trying to, you know,
03:04put ourselves also in a position where we also have a small saying,
03:08and I think it's right to do so.
03:12As I said, in Rome already we had,
03:16we waited one year to have a small response,
03:20and, you know, I think here we are trying to start something now,
03:25you know, but it's, again, nothing against you,
03:28we are here to do our obligations.
03:37Hey, Jannick.
03:38Daniel was just in here before,
03:40and he was talking about your ability to sort of attack down the line
03:45and make the switch.
03:46and I'm curious, how do you decide when to make that switch in the middle of a rally?
03:54Is it just a feel thing and how long you want to go?
03:57Or what is it that contributes to the decision?
04:00Well, I think I'm a player who plays a lot with my gut feeling and what I feel in this
04:06moment.
04:06and, you know, if I feel a shot, I just go for it.
04:10I don't second-guess, kind of,
04:11and I think it's a very important shot,
04:15and it's getting more and more important, you know,
04:16to go down the line, changing direction first,
04:19and depending also against who you play,
04:22because then, of course, you have the whole way open on the other side,
04:25but it is very important,
04:27so I'm someone who, if I feel something, I go for it.
04:36Hey, Anik.
04:37Given how much tennis you have played,
04:39and it looked at times in Rome like, you know, you were feeling it physically,
04:42do you think, had the event not been in Italy,
04:44you might have skipped it or pulled out at some point?
04:50Well, tough to say.
04:51I think being in Italy, for sure, was an extra motivation,
04:55and I knew also was the only master event that was missing
05:01was an extra motivation, and...
05:04But, yeah, at the same time, I...
05:07The thing is now, with these longer events,
05:10if you don't play one event, it's not one week, you know,
05:13you are basically two weeks out, and that's a very long time.
05:17If you don't play before Roland Garros, the Rome event,
05:20and you have three weeks off depending on when you lose in Madrid,
05:25so potentially also four weeks, so it's, you know,
05:28you also need to come here with a good amount of matches
05:31and having this match feeling, so...
05:34Question I cannot answer, but I would say I would still play.
05:41What was it like getting back to Philippe Chatrier for the first time
05:44since the final last year, the special match you've had?
05:47Yeah, a special feeling. As I said, it's a very special tournament for me,
05:52and it has been increasingly better, you know, year after year,
05:56and last year we were very close, but the feelings and the connection
05:59with the crowd was very nice, a lot of kids, which I really like to see,
06:03and that was very nice also, you know, the stairs up, you know, the walk-on,
06:08and of course I still have some... I think back, you know, what happened,
06:16but I have still very positive feelings.
06:24Hi, Yannick. Going back to the 15-minute media thing,
06:27I mean, if you don't get a response or a reaction from doing this,
06:32from the tournaments, what would the players do next?
06:37This we need to see, you know.
06:42It takes all players, and all players are very connected,
06:45and we're all very, very much together,
06:48and I think it's something good, you know,
06:52because with us, you know, events are not possible to play.
06:56It's more about, as I also said in Rome, it's about the respect, you know,
07:01and then when we have to wait for over a year for just a small response,
07:08having the best ten players and, you know, it's not nice, you know.
07:17And in the same time, I hear, you know, talking only about prize money,
07:22but we talk also about the pension, which is a very important topic,
07:29because after tennis player, you also...
07:32Hopefully we get, you know, some pension money,
07:35and also the decision-making, you know, because who decides if they start now,
07:41three Grand Slams out of four, we start Sunday,
07:43but we don't know if they want to start Saturday or Friday, you know,
07:48so we would like to have also a small conversation into that,
07:53so let's see where we go, I mean, let's see also how other Grand Slams
07:58are going to react after here, and then we're going to decide.
08:03We'll be right back.
