What a joy to see the tournaments passing by and Alejandro Davidovich not taking his foot off the accelerator, continuing to show a certain consistency, the factor that will ultimately position him where he deserves in the rankings. At the Masters 1000 in Montecarlo 2025, his name already appears among the best 16 in the draw after defeating Ben Shelton and Tomás Martín Etcheverry, so now it's time to focus on his next match against Jack Draper. But first, he will sit down with his friend from Tennis Channel for a brief chat about his change in mindset, his great start to the season, and some other curiosities.

Victory over Etcheverry

“The key to winning against Tomás? Well, we all know he is a great player on clay, someone who feels very comfortable in the rallies on this surface, so I watched a bit of the match he played the other day against Moutet, I admit. It was a match with a lot of drop shots and a lot of slice, so my approach for this match has been precisely not to have very long points. I tried to press him to come to the net, as well as going myself.”

Residing in Montecarlo

“I have been living here since June, so I can say I feel at home, but this time for real. The atmosphere that is created in this tournament with the crowds is something impressive, in the end, there are many people who come from France and Italy, I feel they support me a lot in my matches, which makes it always a pleasure to come back to this place. Stepping onto these courts to compete is always a joy, although I am aware that my next match will be really tough, but I focus on how much I am enjoying, savoring every moment.”

Fresh start

“The past two years have not been easy for me, I lost several times in the first round, which was very frustrating, but this year I set the goal of rediscovering my game a bit and starting from scratch, delving into my possibilities to play better. I am feeling a lot of confidence this season, which is being reflected in the number of matches I am winning, something that at the same time boosts my confidence even more.”

The keys to his 'comeback'

“I have a new team, this has been key. I also have new goals in my mind, goals that I have not revealed yet… and that I won't reveal (laughs). For me, right now, everything is about staying on the court, that's the real pleasure. At the end of the day, the focus is always on winning every match I play, but I believe the key is to enjoy and live every moment, every shot.”
