We have to be cautious, we have to have a lot of hope in him,

we have to be very optimistic, because his results show that,

but we also have to demand little of him, we have to let him follow his own path.

I think he has been progressing very well in recent weeks,

or in an excellent way, even in a surprising way,

but playing best of five sets is a different story,

it is a different tournament, a different mentality, a different physical demand, a different experience.

I think he is very mentally ready to face all these challenges.

I think Andalusian boy is going to be one of the tricky players

in the first round for the seeded players,

because he comes in with rhythm, he comes in with excitement,

he comes in eager to do well,

he knows perfectly well what it is to play on clay,

although he also adapts perfectly to hard courts.

I think the result in Rome can help him get in there

thinking that he can give more than one person a scare.

The draw is very open,

in the draw there are some very clear, definite favorites,

but after that I think it could be a Roland Garros

where some player who is a bit further back suddenly takes off.
