Your legacy will live forever,
Somehow, I have always been a No. 2 supporter. Not consciously, but it just happens. You know, I was an Andre Agassi supporter, and he was No. 2 at that time. Steffi Graf, she was No. 2. Then Nadal, No. 2. Of course, he went on to become the World No. 1.”

I love the competition, not only in tennis,
He's playing unbelievable tennis... but I'm really looking forward to the challenge, so I will enjoy it,

His level was so high, I thought he was going to give me a window of opportunity, but he didn't... It was unbelievable. It was crazy for me,
Honestly I couldn't believe it,
I knew that against Alcaraz I have to play at this level to have a chance to win,
He didn't play at his best,
Your legacy won't be matched,
It’s obviously a difficult decision, which has taken me a long time to make,
Hello everyone. I'm here to let you know that I am retiring from professional tennis,
Thank you for pushing me to the very limit so many times in our rivalry that has impacted me the most as a player,

I feel super lucky for all the things I have been able to experience,
Your legacy will live forever. Only you know what you had to endure to become an icon of tennis and sport in general,
