I didn't catch a racket yet after my retirement, so it's eight months without being on a tennis court.
00:07
But I will. I will be back at some point.
00:10
Because at some point it will be funny for me to prepare myself to play an exhibition or something like this.
00:16
But I am discovering what really motivates me for this new life.
00:22
So it's not easy in terms of choosing your next goal.
00:28
But for me it's so important to have goals in this life because a life without objectives is more difficult from my point of view.
00:39
I don't miss much tennis because I felt that I gave all what I had.
00:44
I arrived at the day of today with the peace that I can't be on court.
00:55
You know, my body don't allow me to be on court.
00:58
So that's all. I am in peace.
01:01
I did all what I could to have the best career possible.
01:06
And now I am enjoying this new phase of my life that I am sure is going to be less exciting than the tennis career.
01:16
Because the adrenaline that the sports gives to you, I think it's impossible to find in other things in life.
01:24
But that don't mean that I'm going to be less happy.
01:28
I can be happier with less adrenaline and taking care of different things.
01:33
I don't know.
01:34
I'm going to be a good luck.
01:37
So here's myí•´.
01:39
I'm going to wait.
01:48
You can watch the mid- glamour.
