At Wimbledon, Pouille regains confidence: "I think I'm on the right track".
As he attempts to reach the final draw at Wimbledon this Thursday, Lucas Pouille was rather confident at his press meeting.
A former world No. 10, the Frenchman, currently ranked 213th in the world, is starting to rediscover a satisfactory level of play.
At the age of 30, he seems at last to have regained solid physical condition. After winning the title at Mauthausen, he quickly put aside his elimination in the first qualifying round of the French Open to arrive in London with a knife between his teeth.
Like last year, he will be playing in the final qualifying round, and this time hopes to secure his ticket to the Grand Tableau.
Following victories over Pinnington Jones (6-0, 6-3) and Jiri Vesely (7-6, 6-2), he will now attempt to overcome his compatriot Luca Van Assche (101st).
In a statement relayed by L'Équipe, a smiling Pouille spoke of his next objectives: "Without being pretentious, I really think that if I stay healthy, there's a good chance of seeing me in the draw at the Australian Open.
In my quest to come back, I think I'm on the right track."
