One or two more years": Paire talks about his future
Injuries, difficulties, and a plummeting ranking: Benoît Paire doesn't want to give up. "I'm still playing," he assures, while embarking on a new media venture.
Ranked 684th in the world this week, Paire has fallen into anonymity on the professional circuit and has been playing in Challenger tournaments for several seasons.
The French player is simultaneously starting a career as a consultant, becoming one of the headline faces for the arrival of Tennis Channel in France, which will be available for free on the L'Équipe website and app.
He was invited to discuss this on the channel's set this Friday for a short interview and took the opportunity to share his thoughts on his future:
"I'm still playing. I've had quite a few injuries these past two years. So for me, it's been a bit complicated. Now, I have a new team, a new physiotherapist, and a new fitness coach.
And I hope to maybe play for another year or two. It will depend on whether my body allows it. For now, I'm just trying to get back in shape and play without injury. In fact, I'll be playing the Orléans tournament next week, which will be broadcast on Tennis Channel.
