Davidovich’s profound reflection: “The only thing that matters is that we are alive”

It’s time for Alexander Davidovich. After several accumulated attempts, unable to fully show his full potential because he had not quite reached that consistency in terms of mentality, the man from Malaga found himself finally enjoying the good result that he has been chasing for a long time in the semifinals reached in Toronto Masters 1000where Alex De Miñaur will be measured this Saturday (20:30).

In fact, Davidovich was the only Spaniard left in the draw after the elimination of Carlos Alcaraz against Tommy Paul. Although he can improve on the possibility of the title approaching, a good result in itself comes from a habit that has given the man from Malaga more mental stability on the court that he needs: reading and not spending too much time on the mobile. Eliminates two players of the caliber of Alexander Zverev and Casper Ruud well endorse them.

The student of Jorge Aguirre is specifically reading the book as a result of which he left a deep reflection after his victory in the quarterfinals against Mackenzie McDonald:

“Now I’m reading “The power of gratitude”, to be more grateful for everything. In the end, what matters is that we are alive. This may be the most stupid thing that may sound, but in the end it is a real truth. Being grateful for everything around you, for what they give you. The simple things they are the ones that make a difference in the end and that’s what I realize now. That is making me only focus on the moment”, said Davidovich, whose best result in the Masters 1,000 was the final of Monte Carlo in 2022 and the quarterfinals Indian Wells this year.

Reading literally brought out the best in ‘Foki’, as these semifinals ensured him to rise from the current world number 37 which now stands at 23, bettering the 24 it reached in April of this year. But, with Jannik Sinner and Tommy Paul in the other semi-final, Alejandro, who is happy to meet this new Davidovich, wants more.
