The national single player, visibly discouraged after his defeat against the Kazakh, criticized himself and assured that he was not finding his best game.
Chile got off to a bad start against Kazakhstan. Christian Garin was largely outclassed by Timofey Skatov and dropped by partials of 6-1 and 6-3 . The first national individual player had a very poor performance and was beaten in the first game of the Davis Cup series.
In this sense, the man from Arique spoke of his defeat and assured that he was far from being at his best level: “This week I did well, I did well. Following the trend of Australia, who had worked well, won practice sets, played at a high levelbut I enter the field and I can’t find myself . I made a lot of mistakes, especially on the backhand “, he began to comment during the press conference after the duel.
Garin was self-deprecating and visibly distressed: “The moment is difficult, personally it hurts me to be in this air. I’m the first to be self-critical if I didn’t try or practice . The truth is that I work a lot and it does not give me. It hurts, but it hurts more because I wanted to give the point to Chile ”.
“It’s a tough time. Just rooting for Nico (Jarry) who’s been playing really well this week. Hope you win. Thanking the people who came out as they gave me fundamental support and nothing, It’s a difficult time personally “, he completed.
The national claimed to be in good physical condition and highlighted his shortcomings in terms of movement: “Physically I’m fine. After a while, little by little, I no longer have pain, especially in my hand, which I spent six or seven months with a lot of pain. Now I’m fine. As for the pitch, I don’t want to make excuses. I think I wasn’t moving well. I’m a heavy build and when I skate I usually make a lot of holes in the court if the court is soft, and it was, but that has nothing to do with the outcome of the game. »
Finally, he values the performance of his rival and returns to self-criticism on his game: “He has a lot of merit, I think he played very well (Skatov). There, he could have been a little more aggressive, going to tighten the net more, as he has been playing in recent years. I tried to do it, only I have a lot of mistakes and I can’t find my way to play. That’s what worries me the most. Like I said, I try and it doesn’t work. I’ll keep trying, but it hurts right now ”.
