Goff: “I confessed to Alcaras that I want to smile as often as he

“I am very proud of my ability to fight on the court. I feel that the more difficult the situation I find in, the more likely I will show my maximum. I love to win, I am a very competitive person in all aspects of life. My philosophy – if I teach 100% and lose, then this defeat will be less painful than if I did not give everything I could, and there would be a feeling of pity – which is the worst thing that a tennis may feel.

I have always been very competitive, but I think that I was strongly added in the ability to stay positive on the court, to maintain an optimistic mood. I am inspired by the legends of sports not only from tennis, not only a large three. I pay a lot of attention to people such as Messi, Lebron, to the mentality of Koby Braiant and, of course, Serena Williams – how they manage their career.

From the very beginning of the match (against Madison goats) I had no ball feeling, so I changed the string tension. From that moment, the game has improved, and psychologically I felt peace. I understand how important it is for me to play aggressively, even if I make mistakes. In this tournament, I do not have the best sensation to feed, so you still need to work on this component. The main thing – I showed mental stability, made her mistaken and finished the match with better feelings in all blows, ”the American commented.

Coco also confessed that Carlos Alaras is inspired by Carlos.

“After the release of the documentary about Carlos, which I have not yet looked, but which I heard a lot, I try to go beyond the tennis bubble a little and just enjoy life. I even admitted Carlos that I want to try to enjoy the court and smile as often as he is. In general, I want to enjoy life more. I think he has a wonderful philosophy, and I try to inspire it. Although, I think, I will never be able to smile as much as he is, ”said Goff, who in the semifinals Rolan Harros 2025 will play against Lois Bason.
