Cazaux: "I'd like to get closer to the top 30".
Arthur Cazaux is in Montpellier this week for the ATP 250, where he defeated Stan Wawrinka in the first round to set out his ambitions for 2025, as relayed by Midi Libre.
"2024 was rich in experience. In fact, the Australia-Montpellier series really got me going, even if it was a bit draining.
Last year, I broke into the top 100 and had my first big wins. This is my best year yet, and I know that great things lie ahead.
I want to go higher, I'm working well and I'm super motivated to keep moving forward, to progress. I'm giving my all to achieve my goals.
I'd like to get closer to the top 30. That's a great goal, and I think I'm capable of achieving it. Why not go for a 250 title, and if it's in Montpellier, that would be even better.
Eighth runner-up at Melbourne 2024, he was asked about the buzz surrounding this performance: "It's always a pleasure when people talk about you.
What's more, it's good news. But yes, I thought people were getting a bit carried away because I was only 130th.
Winning a second Grand Slam week isn't an end in itself. I want to win a Grand Slam one day.
A second week isn't going to satisfy me. When you see the likes of Alcaraz and Sinner, who are almost my age, it's monstrous.
I draw a lot of inspiration from them. I know I won't have as many wins as them, but I'm going at my own pace and I'm still aiming just as high.
