Like other players of his generation, David Goffin is looking to regain his best form. After going through tough times due to injuries and physical issues, the Belgian, currently ranked 66th in the world, has been enjoying his tennis in recent months, with the pain easing off. Already in the round of 16 of the 2024 ATP Shanghai, Goffin speaks with a certain perspective on his great form.

Victory over Giron takes him to the round of 16 in Shanghai

"It was a tough battle, but I had to fight back after the first set, as in the last few matches. I didn't start well. By the end of the set, I started feeling better, and I began to hold my serve more easily. I was more consistent and aggressive. I'm happy with the reaction I've had; it was a great comeback," explains the Belgian in a press conference.

The key to success in his career

"I've had great battles in recent months, good victories. Also, mentally I've been there for a few months now; everything has been improving week after week since spring and the beginning of summer."

Generation and expectations

"It feels strange. I feel like I'm part of the thirties, but I'm doing very well, and physically I'm one hundred percent; I no longer have pain, so I hope to continue like this. Gael and Grigor have served as inspiration for me because they have been injured, and for example, Gael won a 250 last year in Stockholm.

Grigor has been playing an incredible season. He started well here last year and then the final in Paris, entering the Top 10 again. We were at the ATP Finals 2017 against Grigor, and seeing him again in the top 10 is incredible. We are the same age, so I wondered why I shouldn't try to climb in the rankings as well. It's quite inspiring to see what he's doing. I don't know if I'll be able to return to the Top 10, but for now, I have good tennis, and we'll see how far I can go."

About Alexander Zverev, his next opponent

"I know Sascha quite well from training together. We've played a few times; I have a couple of wins, and he has a few more. We've had very good matches between us. He's had an incredible season; it will be a tough match."
