My goal is to win the big tournaments and beat the best in the world. I still believe that I am capable of doing it. It is also a dream at my age, but a dream based on the logic “, assured 'El Maestro', who could meet again at the Mutua Madrid Open with Rafa Nadal and a Novak Djokovic who has not yet confirmed his presence in the Madrid tournament.
