00:00 (upbeat music)

00:02 - Yeah, I'm happy about the performance.

00:05 I think it was a very tricky match.

00:08 She's a very competitive player,

00:10 so I was expecting a tough battle.

00:12 I'm really happy I got through it

00:14 and really looking forward for the next one.

00:16 - Hi, Paula.

00:23 There's a special moderator in the room

00:26 attending a news conference.

00:28 - Thank you.

00:29 - Just wanted to ask.

00:31 - I knew it was coming.

00:32 - Just wanted to ask, in terms of being with someone,

00:39 spending a lot of time with someone

00:40 who does the same thing you do,

00:43 do you find that that's helpful for your tennis in any way?

00:48 And how much maybe do the two of you talk about tennis,

00:53 give each other advice, ask for advice from each other?

00:57 - We do, and I think it's really positive.

01:00 I always say that sharing all this journey

01:04 with somebody that you love

01:05 and that he's so good at what he does

01:08 and he inspires me so much.

01:11 I learn a lot from him and we talk about, of course,

01:15 maybe today that I had my match,

01:17 yesterday night we were talking about it,

01:19 he gives me his vision, some tips,

01:22 and it helps me, of course.

01:24 So I'm really grateful to have someone like him by my side

01:29 and also now that the next few days,

01:31 I don't know when we're gonna play the mixed doubles,

01:33 so sharing the court with him,

01:35 I think it makes it even more special.

01:37 - Sorry, Paola, I came in a little bit later.

01:47 - I'm not gonna answer then, sorry.

01:49 (laughing)

01:51 - Oopsie.

01:52 - Just on playing Arena next,

01:56 can you just describe to us how close you two are

02:00 and just how much of a bright light she's in your life

02:03 and her personality and that sort of thing?

02:06 - Yeah, she has a big personality, good girl,

02:09 always very, bringing this good energy,

02:13 and even on court, so you can see it,

02:15 very active, very intense player.

02:18 I'm really looking forward for that match.

02:20 I think the last time was, it finished in a sad way.

02:23 So I learned a lot from that match also.

02:26 I think it was a very good one from both sides.

02:29 I know what I'm gonna find from her side Saturday.

02:33 I know how I have to play against her,

02:35 so yeah, I think it's gonna be fun.

02:37 And of course, sharing the court with her

02:41 after all these results she's doing

02:43 and all this is a pleasure for me

02:45 because this past year hasn't been easy,

02:48 so playing this kind of matches,

02:51 it makes it all worth it.

02:52 - Not so much here specifically necessarily,

03:00 but in general around the tour,

03:02 do you think it's important that fans

03:06 remain quiet during points,

03:10 not make noise except between the points or after a game?

03:15 And do you find it distracting if they do

03:20 or when you see other sports,

03:22 whether it's football or basketball or whatever,

03:25 you think, okay, in those sports,

03:26 people make a lot of noise.

03:27 It's okay for us to have that too in tennis.

03:31 - But was this an issue these days?

03:32 Has this been an issue?

03:34 - After that great match against Osaka last night,

03:39 spoke to the fans during--

03:41 - I think she cannot complain

03:42 because I played the court eight and nine

03:44 and you can hear everything.

03:46 I can hear Susanne Le Glen, Philippe Châtrien,

03:48 court six, seven, during the points.

03:51 I think she's very lucky she can play all the time

03:54 on Philippe Châtrien, she's okay with that.

03:56 But I don't mind.

03:58 As I said, I played in small courts these days

04:01 and I was hearing so much noise.

04:03 And in that moment, I'm just so focused on myself

04:06 and on my match that it doesn't really bother me.

04:10 And honestly, I like when the fans cheer and all this.

04:13 I think I get pumped.

04:15 And look, we had a very tough situation years ago

04:18 when we were playing without fans with the COVID situation.

04:21 So now for me, I'm so happy they're back

04:24 and I think they're very important for our sport.

04:27 - Ah, si?

04:31 (laughs)

04:33 (upbeat music)
