Gilles Simon: “It’s them who end up winning…”
“At the amateur level, we have a lot of players who have decided that the beautiful game is to serve and volley and who do it just because it’s classy. And then we have players who don’t care about being beautiful, who just want to show off on the court and who are happy to be in the effort. And often, they’re the ones who end up winning.” declared Gilles Simon in this podcast produced by Christophe Perron.
