    • Favourite surface is clay, shot is forehand and tournament is Rotterdam.

    • Idol growing up was Andy Murray: "The work he puts in, it's amazing to see for me. What he achieved in the time of Rafa and Roger and Novak, it's amazing. I like his attitude on court. He can go nuts, but the next point he's fighting like 200 percent. The drive he has and how hard he works is unbelievable."
    • If he wasn't a tennis player, he would be a Formula 1 driver.

    • Motivation: "I played Wawrinka in Rotterdam in 2018. It was sold out, with 15,000 people. The energy of the crowd was amazing. This is why I play tennis. To play these big guys. I live for these moments."
