A choice that did wonders for the twenty-year-old tennis player as he explained in the “personal message” section of L’Equipe’s website. “I love my life here. It was a big change when I arrived, it was very different from the professional circuit (which he joined after his victory at the 2022 Roland Garros). Here we are ten in the team, we do weight training together, training sessions, there are meetings… You create bonds with everyone, bonds that you will keep later. I find it fantastic. In the professional world, you feel lonely. You can’t say you don’t like what you do, you travel thirty weeks a year with your coach. You don’t see your family, you don’t see your friends. If you have a girlfriend, you don’t see her much either. It’s a world apart,” Debru explains, also detailing the quality of the facilities: “The facilities? I’ve never seen that. We have 24 outdoor courts, 6 indoor courts. Naturally, we also lift more weights, I gained 6 kg.”
