I think this is due to my experience and my way of playing. ""Because, I'm a tennis player in the first rating, that's why a lot of people are interested in me. So I'll say that I'm totally different from a lot of people in this regard, and I can't really help myself to tweet or say something that creates a lot of news. Articles or something similar. ""But I also mean, I'm not sure how to balance it, me and you figured it out at the same time, I mean. "
