The Argentine recounts details of his childhood in this conversation where he analyzes why Roland Garros is such an emblematic Grand Slam for tennis in his country.
Juan Martín del Potro
Juan Martín del Potro has analyzed the situation of Jack Draper, marked by injuries in recent months, and has provided a clear reflection on what it means to live with physical problems in professional tennis. "The body can be the worst enemy of a career, as was my case," pointed out the Argentine. "Draper has talent and is trying to regain self-confidence, but the body must respond to maximum demand every week." Del Potro also emphasized the importance of surrounding oneself with a good team: "Having a tennis coach is not enough; you need a physical trainer, physiotherapist, and mental support."

These are weeks of considerable noise around the ATP circuit and the changes it could undergo in a few years. We all know that Saudi Arabia will make a strong entry in February with the tenth Masters 1000, so the Golden Tour is currently threatened with taking a lower position within the tour, and even runs the risk of disappearing.
It is time to come out and defend it, to emphasize all the good it holds and all the history that precedes it. For this, there is nothing better than the legends that have passed through there to contribute their bit. Juan Martín Del Potro, the latest South American Grand Slam champion, defended the tour in statements collected by *La Nación*: “South America has a very beautiful history with tennis, all players say that South American fans are the best, so hopefully they will respect that,” said the Argentine in reference to ATP's plans for 2027.

Del Potro was even more direct: "Djokovic is Djokovic." The Argentine also made it clear that he wants to see him achieve that milestone before retiring.

The Argentine legend played an exhibition in Brazil and answered a couple of questions from 'Peque' Schwartzman. Which three matches would she choose and what does she miss most about tennis?
Big day at the ATP 500 in Acapulco with the exciting final between Flavio Cobolli and Frances Tiafoe, along with the trophy presentation ceremony. Juan Martín Del Potro was also present, invited by the organization for a well-deserved tribute, although they forgot a 'small' detail. It was precisely the greatness of the Argentine that played a trick on him when asked to say a few words to the crowd. When he approached the microphone, he had no choice but to hold it in the air to adjust its height. Huge Juan Martín, in every way.
Delpo 🥰 So glad you came!@delpotrojuan | @AbiertoTelcel | #AMT2026
