In his long and very interesting interview given to the Russian media Match TVAlexander Bublik, after openly mocking the end of the careers of Rafael Nadal and Andy Murray and explaining that there was no smoke without fire regarding the doping cases involving Sinner and Swiatek, was questioned about his chances of one day winning a Grand Slam tournament.
And obviously, he doesn’t really believe it. Explanations.
“I don’t think winning a Grand Slam is feasible. At least in my head. Of course, anything is possible, opponents forfeiting for example. It’s possible if a member of the Top 3 withdraws in the semi‐finals against me, then the same thing happens in the final. In these circumstances, I can win a Grand Slam. To give yourself a chance to be in the Top 10, and to be a contender in the Grand Slams, you have to live a different life. I speak with the strongest players every day. I see what they are doing. Just an example with Zverev. We were on two different flights returning from Shanghai to Monaco. I arrived Wednesday evening. Zverev arrived at 6 a.m. on Thursday. Flights last nearly 16 hours. I recovered Thursday and Friday and went to train on Saturday. Sascha was already there. I ask him: “Is this your first day of training?” “. He replies: “No, this is my sixth training session. “. He had already trained twice on Thursday, twice on Friday, and had two sessions on Saturday. »
