It’s the most normal thing, and if you don’t feel the doubt, if you don’t feel the pressure, it means you don’t care, right?
“I’m more aware than many years ago, but at the same time, even today I go on the court, and I have my little doubts about what if this or that were to happen, but you have to manage it. “In my opinion, doubt is connected a little bit with the pressure itself. I think each of us has doubts; it’s the most normal thing.
