“Against Paul it has been a quite uncomfortable game, especially with myself, not the game in general. From the beginning. The first two games my serve has been very comfortable and he also with his. After that, I was rushing more, throwing. mine is the lowest ball in the serve, I have many failures in the serve,” said Davidovich.
“I will leave with a taste between bittersweet and happy because I try to do as much as possible.

In the end it has been on the rope and about to take the second set”, said the man from Malaga, who in australia tomorrow he forced five sets with the American.
“We know the Australia game is quite a tough battle and here it will be different. We both didn’t play at our high level. We both knew we were at 70 percent and it was decided in the last few points. If I manage to win that ‘break’ ball for the-break and it could have been different. But I think none of us thought about what happened in Australia”, Alejandro pointed out.

Paul failed in a possible duel in the round of 16 with Carlos Alcaraz. “Yes, in the end it is one more game, but now that he is number one in the world, obviously I would like it. The Carlos thing, in the end I saw that he would explode at any moment. . We don’t know if how early, but it didn’t surprise me. He’s a very good player, he’s at a good level and he’s there because he deserves it,” said Davidovich.

I don’t think I’ve been away for so long. , all I want is calmness in sofa. Make my own food, which I haven’t been able to cook for two months, without making. You’re always in a hurry, there’s tension because of the game, you have to practice… I’ll spend some quiet days at home”, said Davidovich.
“I really like cooking, it entertains me, I show more creativity in the kitchen and I invent some dishes. Since I’m alone, I have no pressure,” Alejandro said with a laugh.
