[Music] congratulations I'm curious over the last few months um since you've been gradually improving at what point did you kind of allow yourself to believe that you could get back to playing deep in Grand Sams again well look I always knew that if my back responded well and my injury responded well I said it I I I think I said it with you in Washington that um I had the talent and uh and I knew I could get back to the top um I just needed like my physical part to respond and I think the mental and the tennis was there so finally I working really well this couple couple of months I think the work is paying off and that's the the thing that I'm most proud of myself you know because I I knew that if that was okay the rest will come I'll take two more Willie and David you've spoken about even considering retirement what do you think about that today how it got to that point that you even considered that yeah because in that moment I was feeling pain every day I was waking up so it for me didn't make sense and also I said it the other day for me with all my respects um for me tennis doesn't make sense if I'm not on the top you know I want to play Big stages I want to play the last rounds of of every tournament I want to be in the best one of the best players in the world then is when I feel motivated and excited every day if if not for me being in the ranking I was two months ago didn't make any sense and for me I struggle a lot mentally being in that position so for me what makes sense and what makes me happy every day is to be where I am right now in the last in the last stages of every tournament
