My serve can get better, for sure. It's not just about serving bombs, but positioning, variation in speed, in spin.

Why would I want a place of my own? Then I would have to things worry about, like doing laundry and having food in the fridge.

If the plane moves, some turbulence, I am nervous flyer.

I would love to learn other languages, maybe French? My uncle speaks German so maybe also German? Chinese seems to be too difficult.

I was shy when I was a kid, I was very shy, but now I think I've improved a lot. I can speak OK with the media and with the people. My English is still bad but I feel a little bit better now than before.

I will do as I usually do. Tomorrow is going to be a day like any other day.

I am lucky because my family are comfortably off. My father has his own glass business.

My motivation is tomorrow, just one day at a time, right?

I used to wear sleeveless T-shirts all the time on court, but now I've got a brand new look - I've moved on to polo shirts. Sleeveless T-shirts give you real freedom of movement and they keep you cooler in matches, but I just thought it was time for a change.

It's important to have people around you with enough confidence to say if you are not acting in a good way. Normally, when you are at the top, people say everything is fantastic. Probably in that moment it is what you want to hear, but it's best to be reminded how to act properly.

I'll never have a tattoo - I just don't like them, and when you're old they can look a disaster. As for piercings, I don't like them on men.

For me, it is important to win titles and for that I need to work hard, stay healthy and be able to compete. The rest, I always say, it comes.

In Majorca, I can be myself. I go to the supermarket and the cinema, and I am just Rafa. Everyone knows me, and it is no big deal. I can go all day - no photographs.

That's painful always to lose.

I just was in the second round. That's painful, because always is tough to lose, but well, that's sport. You win, you lose.

You know, a lot of things changed. What never changed is the illusion to keep playing tennis, the illusion to keep doing well the things, and the illusion to be in a good position of the ranking and play these kind of matches.

It's more a tennis problem than a mental problem. The transition is difficult. It depends how much time you have. Playing on grass can sometimes be a bit of a lottery.

I tried to find a solution to the problem that I had, tried to find a way to start playing better.
