Discussion on Coaching and Sacrifice in Tennis
I haven't experienced it as a captain, I've experienced it as a friend of Juan Carlos.
For me, I, I— I think there will be a second chapter.
I want, I want, I want to wait for a, a, a, part two, right?
Beca—
gosh, uh, Juan Carlos, uh, mmm,
I want to emphasize this. Juan Carlos, when Carlos was 16,
Juan Carlos was already someone like a coach,
uh, who was well-known and had offers from great
players, and I mean truly great ones, top,
top three, huh?
And he gave up everyth— not that he gave up everything, but rather he bet on Carlos and
traveled to Challengers and Futures with Carlos, uh,
slept with him in the rooms.
I mean, a guy who was very comm— made a huge personal
sacrifice, obviously knowing that Carlos was someone
special, but, but it wasn't
easy at all, huh? And, and,
And of course, what they've experienced has been something very beautiful,
but I do remember the, the,
the sacrifice Juan Carlos made, which I want to emphasize so that
people
are aware of, of, of, how Juan Carlos has supported
Carlos. So, of course, for them to leave it…
well, for them to leave it like that, in my view, it's a bit,
I don't know, it has to— it has to end better,
it has to
end better. I feel sorry, I feel sorry for both of them, because
Juan Carlos is like a friend of mine, and Carlos is a very good person, and there has to be
a part two.
Does it, does it surprise you, or because you're close to them, did you already—
Well, it surprised me, of course, because I was surprised they left it,
of course, if everything was
fine, if I had to talk to them.
It left us stunned.
Yes, and besides, I had to go to the academy to
see them, because,
because, well, they were here for preseason.
It really surprised me, yes.

No la he vivido como capitán, la he vivido como amigo de Juan Carlos. A mí me, me-- yo creo que habrá un segundo capítulo. Quiero, quiero, quiero esperar un, un, un, una parte dos, ¿no? Porqueee, ostras, eh, Juan Carlos, eh, mmm,
yo esto lo quiero recalcar. Juan Carlos, cuando Carlos tenía dieciséis años, Juan Carlos ya era alguien como entrenador, eh, reconocido y tenía ofertas de grandes jugadores, pero grandes te digo de top, top tres, ¿eh?
Y dejó tod-- no es que dejara todo, pero sino que apostó por Carlos y viajaba a Challengers y a Futures con Carlos, eh, dormía con él en las habitaciones. O sea, un tío muy con-- hizo un sacrificio a nivel personal muy grande, obviamente sabiendo que Carlos era alguien
especial, pero, pero no era nada fácil, ¿eh? Y, y, y claro, lo que han vivido ha sido algo muy bonito, pero yo sí que recuerdo el, el, el sacrificio que hizo Juan Carlos, que eso lo quiero recalcar para que la
gente sea consciente de, de, de, de cómo ha apostado Juan Carlos por, por Carlos. Entonces, claro, que, que lo dejen por un... bueno, que lo, que lo dejen así un poco, a mi modo de ver, un poco, no sé, tiene que a-tiene que acabar mejor eso,
tiene que acabar mejor. Me, me da pena, me da pena por, por los dos, porque Juan Carlos es como amigo mío y Carlos es muy buena gente y tiene que, tiene que haber una parte dos. ¿Te, te sorprende así o tú ya por cercanía ya-
A ver, me sorprendió, claro, porque me sorprendió que lo dejaran, claro, si estaba todo bien, si yo tenía que hablar con ellos. Es que nos dejó alucinados. Sí, y aparte yo tenía que ir a la academia a
verlos, porque, porque bueno, estaban en pretemporada aquí. Sí me sorprendió mucho, sí
