There are a lot of very good juniors who have a very high level, but mentally, they're not quite there yet.
It's crazy how it is. I mean, I go from being not known to, you know, being so known in the tennis world, in Canada in general.
Obviously, it's tough - missing my parents, family in general - but I'm getting used to it. It's the life, and hopefully I'll get some time to go home maybe for a week or a bit to catch up on things.
I'm very sorry to Mr. Gabas, to whom I apologised in person. Very sorry for letting my Davis Cup teammates down and for letting my country down. I apologise to all the tennis fans, to my supporters, and my sponsors. I feel ashamed of my unprofessional behaviour and will accept any consequences as a result of my action.
I wasn't a kid who won every tournament I was playing, and I think that helped me - it motivated me a lot to know what it felt like not to win.
I've never hurt a single person in my whole life - never even wanted to hurt someone.
I kind of learned that it's never over until it's over in tennis.
I'm trying to stay humble because if I don't keep producing results, all of this goes away, so I want to focus on the people close to me - my family and my team; they mean everything to me.
I go from being not known to being so known in the tennis world, in Canada in general. It's going to be a little bit of a change to me. I'm going to have to adapt. But that doesn't change things. I still have to work really hard every day.
I don't get nervous anymore. The first couple times I met Roger Federer, or Grigor Dimitrov, I was a little nervous. But now, it's more natural.
I just hope to take this confidence and keep going forward.
I'm getting my confidence and momentum, and I'm playing free and playing loose.
I've had several tough matches. Just getting through it every day, it's really motivating.
I always dreamed of playing a night match on Arthur Ashe Stadium. It's a dream come true for me.
Maybe for a guy like Zverev or Federer, you could say it's open a bit. For a guy like me, every match is tough, and I'm going to have to battle it out.
I'm playing Kyle Edmund, who is so solid. He's an unbelievable player. He goes for his shots. He's not afraid to take it to the guy.
Once it's over and you understand what's going on, it's a shame. You want to win three sets.
A lot of it's mental - a lot of the juniors, once you break them or change the momentum, they go away very quickly.
Everything is so much more stacked than it was even five or 10 years ago. There are so many more good players, so many solid players. The level doesn't really drop from around 100-500. It's really tough to make it, but I just have to work as hard as possible.
I never assumed that I would be able to play in a main draw so quickly after Juniors. I've been having really good results. It really is a privilege. I'm very happy for the opportunity.
