The left-hander recounted the details of his victory against Alejandro Tabilo at the ATP in Santiago.
The smile displayed by Alejandro Tabilo during a press conference clearly shows that the Chilean is having a great time. Quarter-finalist of the Chile Open, he also managed to beat his great friend on the circuit for the first time: Tomás Barrios. A consequence of the events he spoke about at a press conference.
Relaxed, he also spoke about what it means to play a match against a player with whom he shares friends and technical staff: “Even Guille and another coach weren’t there, they both saw it from home, so it’s weird to prepare for that, but right before we warmed up together there “You have to concentrate well and prepare well, but yes, it’s a strange feeling, but I’m happy with the way I played this day and I felt very solid”, began by saying the 51st global.
He explained in detail this special feeling of not having his coach in the box: “It was the first time this happened, but the first time we were here in Santiago, so everyone saw it from different angles, even those who stayed here were all separated there. . At that point they can’t do anything else, the problem is solved, so they were there with their family watching and enjoying the match,” he added.
The key to his victory was also addressed by the left-hander, who after three unsuccessful attempts managed to beat Barrios: “All this year I felt very confident with the serve and today that also showed a little there. I felt very solid behind, I felt good physically, so I knew I could be there running, holding on and I think that helped me a lot. “Tomi is coming back really well, so I had to be very focused on that,” he said.
Finally, he admitted to having the desire to lift the trophy, but always making it clear that there was still a way to go before celebrating. “Always with the hope of one day being able to win this tournament, but for now we have to take it match by match . “I want to trust in the process, train hard, try to improve every day and work, that’s the most important thing, that I can continue at this level, stay physically healthy and tomorrow a new match, we have to concentrate and for everything,” he reacted.
