“Family is very important. Not only do I refer to my parents and others, but I also refer to my entire team, to which I am very attached and also consider it as my family. Surrounding yourself with people who love you and support you in The most complicated moments are fundamental. Since I was a child I have traveled almost alone and have always gotten used to living by myself. When I was in high school I had to leave school and start studying privately, as it was very difficult for me to combining studies with tennis. If I continued in public school, not only would I have gotten bad news, but I would have had many absences. “

When they ask me what the final of my dreams would be, always I say it would be playing the Wimbledon final against Roger Federer. “

In that tournament I didn’t stop listening to Fabri Fibra, he is an Italian artist who gives me a lot of peace of mind and that I listen constantly. “

“It was incredible what Naomi did. She went to the end with her courageous message. She had the strength and authority to show everyone that sport can be important when it comes to talking about various issues in society. You had to talk about racism because of everything that was happening in America. My generation is very inclusive, willing to embrace diversity and avoid all kinds of conflict. Most of us have already labeled racism as totally absurd. All people are equal. It doesn’t matter. the color of your skin or race. “

In Rome I did an incredible feat, beating players of the stature of Stan Wawrinka and Kei Nishikori, players who know what it is to play Grand Slams finals. After those victories, I had two days to celebrate and digest what happened. I immediately went to Forli because I had to play a Challenger game. “
