Patrick Mouratoglou shares his own thoughts about Serena Williams and he is 100% convinced that the world no.1 is going to have an even better 2016 after a stellar 2015 (well… at least we think it was “stellar”)
Serena: This was a horrible year (!!!???)
Actually the interesting point is that Serena beleives that this has been a horrible season. Apparently the world no.1 wasn’t satisfied with being only a couple of match away from winning the Grand Slam, and 3 majors (Australian Open, Roland Garros and Wimbledon) and winning 2 top tournaments such as Miami and Cincinnati wasn’t good enough for her.
Mouratoglou explained “I contacted her on the phone a few days ago, she said to me that this year has been horrible. In 2016, she wants to do much better. She has this personality, she doesn’t accept anything than victory. According to her, a simple double fault seems an unprofessional thing, imagine when you don’t realize something historic like the grand slam.”
It wasn’t easy digest the loss. For Serena, it was a severe blow, she didn’t reply on the phone for one week. No calls nor any SMS. But now she feels better, it’s her way to manage losses, I’m convinced that in 2016 she will do great things.
She will realize the grand slam next year and will win the gold medal in Rio.
She’s already won four slams in a row even if not in the same year, so she knows how to do it. She’s a champion and now she has to avenge that loss. It means to have more motivations, and she has already many. She’s a born champion. I remember that after her Roland Garros win, she had the trophy in her hand, watched me and said: ‘Come here, I have do to stretching. We need to think to win Wimbledon.’ She already forgot that she’d won a slam, and it’d happened 10 mins ago.”
So… ready for more Serena to come?
