“It’s a difficult time for Daniel who is a great player. I have no doubt that he will win the trophy on his way. It was one of the most emotional nights of my career and I’m glad we shared it.A month ago I didn’t know if I would play again and it’s incredible that I’m in this position right now. Thank you for your support. What happened here will stay in my heart for the rest of my life.

It’s one of the most intense moments in my career to have the support these two weeks have been amazing you will always be in my heart. Many thanks to all my employees and my family. I know how tough it’s been lately, tough times you’ve been here.

Many Thanks. I don’t want to forget anyone, the volunteers, the KIA that was with me, the good moments and the bad. And it was difficult for the Australian government to organize such a tournament. How supportive you have been, thank you very much. I will say again, there is a possibility that this will be my last Australian Open. I will keep trying to do my best to come back next year.
