Australian Open > Corentin Moutet, before his third round match: “It’s something we don’t often talk about. We see it with the best players in the world who have quite an impressive record”

During his appearance at a press conference after his victory in the second round of the Australian Open, Corentin Moutet wanted to emphasize a fundamental aspect of the game in general: concentration.

And he will need it to beat, this Saturday from 5:30 a.m., the young American, Learner Tien, impressive winner of Daniil Medvedev in five sets.

“There is the physical, but there is also the concentration. It’s something we don’t often talk about, but concentrating throughout a match isn’t easy. We see it with the best players in the world who have quite impressive concentration. Today it could have cost me the third set. 5–2, 40–0 on my serve and I found myself winning it in the tie‐break. Concentration is what I want to be good at this year and in the years to come. I want to offer a hard, physical and intense fight. If I have to lose the match, let the opponent have after-effects when he leaves the field. »
