I always said I would finish the year and the year is not finished yet, |
I called my parents and everybody was OK. My brother, Roberto, lives in Madrid and he's OK. My sister-in-law, sister and kids live near one of the train stations there. |
I think it's crazy, it happens all the time. |
I'm proud of all I have achieved in this sport. It has been many years of sacrifice in which I have had tough moments. But those you forget, and the ones that remain are the ones that have filled you as a tennis player and as a human being. |
It hurt too much, ... There was no way I could play on. |
It wasn't an easy decision, but everything has to come to an end. There were some hard times but in the end the successes will always remain. |
It's not an easy decision because tennis has been my life. But I've taken this decision with my head not with my heart. I think I have to be happy because from now on I will be able to dedicate my time to other things. |
