His first tournament was in Dallas and I ended up winning," Shapovalov talks about Yatzy, his lucky dog, before playing in the final at Los Cabos
Denis Shapovalov will attempt this Saturday to win the Los Cabos tournament against Aleksandar Kovacevic.
The Canadian, a winner in Dallas in February, has found good form this week in Mexico and hopes to claim the fourth title of his career. For the ATP website, he discussed adopting his dog Yatzy, who helps him relax outside tournaments and even between matches whenever possible:
"His first tournament was in Dallas and I ended up winning. So it was perfect to have him. I love coming back home, he helps me unwind. When he's at the tournament with me, even in the morning before a match, he helps me not to think about it.
He has traveled a lot. He was supposed to be in Stuttgart and Halle, but my fiancée (Mirjam Borklund) had to attend a wedding, so it couldn't happen. And during the tournament, I can't take care of him alone. But he's a very fun little guy.
