Welcome to the forum.


Thanks a lot!

By the way, sorry for the rather sloppy wording and those typos. I didn't have time to correct it as I finished quite late and then I copied it here from Word, which apparently put some parts of it in a different order and erased some other parts. But I hope you enjoy it anyway.

My thanks to you as well, Chien! I get the feeling that while you are new to the Forum, you have been what I fondly call a Daniela Maniac for a long time.
The actual article is far better than the synopsis I had and put up here. This is by far the most incisive, most revealing interview of Dani I have ever seen. It makes me feel better than ever to be a fan of hers, and it makes it plain that she is at peace with her career in tennis and with her life in general. And, it shows that Daniela has a lot more to offer the world when she stops playing. As I like to say about her, the world is a better place simply because Dani is in it!



Let's Go, Daniela!

You're welcome, Alex! And you are right - I have been a fan of Dani for quite some time now. I came across this Forum a few years ago and started ghost-reading it since you guys seemed to be some of Daniela's most devoted fans. When I saw that you couldn't access that interview online, I decided to put its translation on here as Dani reveals in it quite a lot about her future plans and prospects.

US OPEN WITHDRAWALS COULD HELP HANTUCHOVÁ

New York - 17 players with eligible ranking to miss action at the last Grand Slam of the year.

4 of those players could have participated directly in the main draw - Victoria Azarenka (pregnancy), Maria Sharapova (doping), Margarita Gasparyan and Galina Voskoboeva (both injured). The Kazakh player is currently ranked as high as 370. but she was intending to use a protected ranking, for which she was eligible and which would have given her the 64th spot in the ranking. The Moscow-born player was forced to withdraw from the Olympics due to ongoing health issues.

Our player Magda Rybáriková had to withdraw from the qualifying tournament due to surgery. Had she not done so, she would currently be the highest ranked player not ranked high enough to partake in the main draw. The other players who have withdrawn so far are Zarina Diyas, Bojana Jovanovski, Petra Martič, Jana Fett, Ajla Tomljanovic, Tamara Zidansek, Kaia Kanepi, Klára Koukalová, Anne Schäfer, Cristina Dinu, Petra Cetkovská, Alexandra Dulgheru, Chang Liu and Andrea Hlaváčková. The Czech player is, however, still supposed to play doubles with Lucie Hradecká.

The withdrawals could open the door to the tournament to Daniela Hantuchová. She was ranked 253rd in the world at the time of the entry-close date. Right now, the ranking necessary for the qualifying is 239, but thanks to the withdrawals, Daniela is the 8th possible alternative. If the Poprad-born player didn't get to play at the Open, it would break her streak of 16 consecutive participations at the last Grand Slam of the season. Hantuchová has played at every single US Open since 2000. The interesting thing is that it was the only time that Daniela had gone to the main draw through qualifying. The best result of the former 5th best player in the world were two QF appearances in 2002 and 2013.

The loss of control of Novak Djokovic


The hunt for records has resulted in the number one tennis world to deep self-doubt. He meditates, traveling to places of his childhood and now seems to be a different person.

From Gerald Kleffmann
In the middle of the range sits a man, tanned, white, unbuttoned shirt. He speaks Spanish, long and quiet. Then the man goes, it is now just one hour over the microphone to his neighbor. This man wearing a blue shirt, shorts, has dark hair. He says that the group have meditated on the podium before. You have wished to establish harmony among themselves and with the souls in the hall.

He says: Meditating is important. It should not matter who did what job. We are all equal. We searched all for love, happiness. The man told a parable in which it comes to cars that are our thoughts and operate on the streets. Sometimes it helps to step out of circulation. to go on a mountain. From there on the market to see. A nice picture.

The man is Novak Djokovic .

The two-hour video is easy to find on the Internet. Pepe Imaz has put it on its website. Imaz is the suntanned man who initiated the session. He is a tennis coach, he runs an academy in Marbella, which strongly focuses on the personal development of players in the focus. The Slovakian Daniela Hantuchova and a brother of Djokovic can be seen in the video that confirms an impression: Djokovic, 29 , for two years the best tennis players in the world, the end of 2015 and early 2016 was clearing four Grand Slam tournaments in succession and in Olympic year was the Golden Slam dream, is no longer the same. He is looking for a new look at his profession, to be on his goals. He says himself.

Daniela Hantuchova: I finally understood the words Liptáková

today | 09:00 BRATISLAVA - Why this Daniela Hantuchova else does? They ask many, with some MUDRLANTI presumptuously have right at hand some for his personal gain. Not everyone understands that the former world number five continues that career as a 33-year slump after the third hundred.

DIALOGUE ON THE WEEKEND with Daniela Hantuchova, a former fifth tennis player and currently 227 WTA rankings

Unhappy is he who has a lifelong passion that he makes you happy, regardless of whether he succeeded in it right or not. Hantuchova us in an interview said that he wanted to play the next season. Its rationale is clear and simple: continue because I love tennis and that's it ...

How was this season from your perspective?
"I honestly have to admit from the tennis is not much to balance. Outside the areola However, I learned about myself perhaps more new than in the previous sixteen years career. I have had so many wonderful moments. In particular I finally indulged a decent summer holiday and I gave a long break from tennis. I managed to slowly put aside my sport perfectionism and organize your priorities in life. I very much look forward from that. "

Which can match or tournament this year and came out best when you turn it the worst?
"Tennis is really not no glory. It is difficult to me therefore also highlights something special for this year. "

You were accustomed to fighting for the top. How did you feel at ITF tournaments or in qualifying?
"The team I frankly did not deal at all. I love tennis so much that I do not care if I play on Centre Court at Wimbledon or a small ITF tournament. For me it is important that I go to a tournament, because I really want. Taste struggle and toil for himself, never left me. It is still very high, which sometimes surprises even me alone. "

You did not feel the pressure on results?
"Not. I finally realized that nothing anyone not required to prove. Played I've had enough I guess. I continue because I love tennis and that's it ... If I had a career looked over the results, prize money and ranking, I would long since ended. My tennis life but is now finally only pure joy and enthusiasm that I can still do such a wonderful sport. "

You have certainly during the year did everything possible to make you more began to flourish. Introduce you to prepare some news?
"The main change is that I am trying to train a little less. This is a difficult but ... (laughs) because I still have in my head feel like I have eighteen and sometimes forget that the recovery has been going on for more than a few years ago."

You have already decided that you will continue on the circuit in 2017?
"Of course yes! If you will obey me health ... Already I am looking forward to the winter training. For me, it's probably the most beautiful part of the year. Every night I fall into bed from exhaustion, but with a sense of well made robots. The next day barely stand, but I go further, so that blowing through an entire week. Then Sunday is really a well-deserved day of rest. During the preparation of mainly I have to travel. It gives me a huge rarity when I can spend a few weeks in one place."

Many would be after so many years on the circuit and a slump in the position longer wanted venturing into other winter preparation. What still drives you forward?
"Like I said - pure pleasure from the fact that I'm doing what I love. I'm thankful that God gave me a body that still serves me after so many years of toil and effort. In truth, not only games but also training I enjoy as much as when I was little. Fed Cup coach and captain Matej Liptak me a few years ago said the nice thing: God, because you do not have to prove nothing. Daniela Hantuchova you yet, I can just užívaj! His words to me now finally arrived. It took a little while I am your head aligned. I still had the feeling that I have more and more to win. Instead I looked up to you all the beauty I have achieved."

The fact that most training taking is seen even from your photos and posts on social networks ...
"I'm really enjoying coaching more than ever. But I have to be sensible mainly in dosages training. After two days of full load is needed a lighter day that I risked injury. I give you to say, more rest. The head, however, prefer more trained, so that trainers have with me sometimes difficult. "

In the position you are currently ranked up to 227, but have climbed this year and five players from Top 100 - Irina Falconi, deer Ostapenkovú, Naomi Osakovú, Yaroslava Shvedova, Lauren Davis. Acquired during the season you feel that you still have the first hundred?
"Position has been really absolutely proceed. For me, it's the inner feeling that I do, which I still filling. When it is not one day, when I finish. "

In the past you have excluded deblových career specialist. Not much has changed on that thing and yet you are not attracted to, for example, when you see your kamarátku Martina Hingis to win a tournament in doubles?
"He says: Never say never. I can not imagine that I would just go to the tournament for doubles. I always took it in fact just as fun and complement to singles. "

You run your brand Healthy snacks D-One. It's been a suggestion that was also starting to prepare for life after tennis career?
"Yes, and very much of it forward. It took an incredible amount of work, but I was completely in it found. I finally fulfilled his dream. I've always wanted to try, if I can something other than tennis. It's nice that I can apply in business, the sport has learned. Without discipline, hard work and good team because people are not accepted anywhere. "

What exactly goes in your project?
"I took advantage of their sports knowledge of proper diet and I have prepared fans for something that tastes great but is also extremely healthy. The whole point of the product is the name of D-One. Motto in English reads: Be d-one (the one) to take care of yourself. I mean, that nobody and nothing not fix us happy within themselves except ourselves. Taking care of your body is important. When you put something healthy, we will automatically feel better. "

Dominika Cibulkova offset your Slovak-time high position in WTA - 5th place. How did you feel about her performance and I do not envy the good that today is the first four weaker than during the best of your period, when they were in front of you sisters Serena and Venus Williams and Kim Clijsters of Belgium girl Justine Henin, all extraordinary personalities?
"It is true that when the level of the top ten much higher quality and player wore really incredible. This does not change the fact that Dominica has demonstrated at the end of the season fantastic tennis. Majsteriek tournament in Singapore have clearly deserved to win! Match against Kerber was one of the best of all, where I saw her play. Very her that wish. Slovakia again did a great name."


Hantuchova worst SEASON
prices realized it was not good for Hantuchova year. He entered into it as the 83rd player of the world. In February, he dropped out after fifteen years of hundreds of the world's best. Due renkingového decline came on the Olympics and the US Open. Also he competed in two tournaments ITF, which has already fallen in the first and second round. The third consecutive year, losing more than winning matches (balance 19-21).

On the WTA she prevailed even in only one of the ten fights in the main competition. Brightest moments of the season were managed trojkolové qualifications in Sydney, Katowice and at Roland Garros. The computerized ranking it currently belongs to 227 wall, that it is not even enough to start in Australian Open qualifying. Slovenka this week skrečovala duel of the first round in Taipei. Interview with her we were doing prior to this start.

From your generation has been left in a carousel WTA player wore a lot - Williams sisters, Vinci, Schiavone and a few others. What you still holding on to the court?
"The love of tennis. Still I fill me and having fun. Even more than when I was in the top 10. Finally, enjoy it as when I was young. And if I'm in the rankings two hundred, five hundred and twenty, all this does not solve. If it already is not one day, when I finish.

I know quickly accept things lost and at the same time eliminate the unnecessary. Just like already I am herself trainer and detachment to say - so this was folly or vice versa - it was great.

Collaborate more with Carlos Rodriguez, a former coach of Justine Henin and Li?
"Not. With Carlos we left right after this year's Australian Open , ever since he could not travel. Of course, there is always room for improvement and the coach will give you easy, show the things that she can not see. But certainly I do not need someone permanently. After eighteen years on the WTA tour, I would already she should have known what to do. "

Judging from the tweet it seems like Daniela's in the US at the moment as the tweeter's from Atlanta and it looks like one of the facilities in Florida -green clay - and it really doesn't look like Brisbane or Auckland. Daniela's not listed for any of the tournaments at the star of the year, main tour or ITF.
