Our hearts shrink every time Andrey Rublev decide hitting your knees with the racket. It is a gesture with which he vents frustration, but it could be very harmful to her body. Why not break the racket directly? In the interview with Championnat, Andrey himself openly explains the mental process behind each gesture of fury on the track.
“Why on the knees? There are two reasons. First of all, for rackets. I am very selective, it is difficult for me to find rackets that I like. Even if they are the same, only two or three of the fifteen racquets I have will fit me perfectly. This is why it is very difficult for me to throw them, because if I break them, I will have to look for a long time for an equal racket (laughs). And it can take a long time, so I prefer to hit my knees and not throw them against the track.
Secondly, sometimes I resent myself so much that I no longer know what to do to realize that I have to wake up. In those moments, it’s a way of telling myself: ‘Wake up! The game started half an hour ago!’ After the outbursts of anger I feel guilty, because I know that they are not necessary, that they do not help me at all… but at that moment I don’t know what to do. That anger comes from the will I have to win, but sometimes that leads to bad aggression. When you want something very strongly and it is not given to you, it is something that does not quite fit in your head. “The expectations I have of myself cause those emotions, nothing more.”
