Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard will end this season as one of the great revelations, going from being almost unknown outside the top 200 to finishing the calendar very close to the top 20. The Frenchman, who just won in Basel two days ago, made a victorious debut this afternoon at the Rolex Paris Masters, where he showed Frances Tiafoe the door. Later, at the press conference, he dared to talk about his playing style, the one that has everyone fascinated and all his rivals terrified.
“My way of playing tennis is risky, I know, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, but I'm not going to change my way of thinking. Whatever the scoreboard says will not make me take fewer risks; what I need to correct is the issue of double faults. Today I hit 13, okay, but we're no longer in Basel, this court is completely different, and I didn't have much preparation. I never played on this surface, barely got ready this morning. Still, I'm ready to take risks, whatever happens, until the end of my career. I'm sure I'll win more points than I lose,” said the 21-year-old player.
