"My tennis journey began because both of my older sisters played and I would go to their practice sessions and pick up all the balls they hit at the other side of the court. My main motivation for playing tennis is my love for the sport. There's nothing else I'd rather do with my time. I most enjoy the never-ending struggle to continue to improve and the competitive nature of the sport." (dunlopsports.com, 28 Sep 2020)

"My best tip is to never quit. After a bad match I allow myself an hour to feel sorry for myself. Then it's time to move on and learn what I can, and in turn become a better player. In the past I have struggled with self-belief on a tennis court. I think as you mature you learn more about yourself and how to handle doubts and emotions." (dunlopsports.com, 28 Sep 2020)

LATE BLOOMER
He hit a new career high world ranking of 137 at age 27 in April 2021, and says he matured as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. "I think the pandemic has made people mature, or people who were immature to start with - I'm one of those people. It's definitely made me mature quite a lot in some of the right ways. I look back now and [my career] has been a longer journey than I thought it would have been. Maybe I messed around a lot more than other people might have done who were similar ages to me, my peers. But if I hadn't have done that, would I know what I know now? Would I be in the same position I am now? Who knows. This year [2021] has been good because obviously my ranking has been moving in the right direction. I've had some good wins. I've been more consistent. I feel like the tennis that I've been putting on the court in general has actually been watchable probably for the first time in my pro career." (wimbledon.com, 29 Jun 2021)
