For him, playing on Australian soil is special:“Going back to Australia is something I really wanted because I feel great here. My results confirm that. I really wanted to come back, I wanted to play. But of course, considering last year’s event, I was a little nervous about going back to Australia, didn’t know how people would welcome me.

But he’s been there all tournament, so it’s fine. In the end we had a happy ending.”
