During the conference, the American revealed he had stepped away from social media to protect himself. He stated: "I remember two years ago, I ended up deleting Twitter from my phone, and it was the best decision I ever made.
Publicité
Two years have passed, and I’ve never read anything on that social network again. I prefer watching highlights of certain matches.
Right now, I watch a lot of tennis matches, whether it’s from the tournament I’m playing in or even from a Challenger event happening that same week.
I have a team that helps keep me grounded; they’d never let me tell myself nonsense.
