Maxime Janvier is not a top-tier tennis player, but he will play Wimbledon and on the eve he spoke about the financial difficulties he has suffered in his career.
Maxime Janvier He is an honest tennis player, who qualified for the first time for the tournament Wimbledonwhere he will try to win the first match of his career on the major circuit. Janvier has passed three rounds, but has acquired a certain popularity for what he said when he won the decisive match, he literally rang the bell, talking about money, the money he brought home with the first round. And he also spoke about that topic in the following days, in which he also said he no longer loves tennis. In the middle the Frenchman also brought up Lorenzo Musettion whom he gave a jab.
Chi è Maxime Janvier
Number 225 ATP, at most he was 170, he is 27 years old. Janvier is certainly not a champion (which in French would be January) but he always tries at Wimbledon he passed the qualifications, he did it largely against predictions by beating in the decisive round Mpetshi Perricard, a young transalpine talent who due to the regulation was forced to play them (even if he is now well within the top 100). A success achieved in four sets, which the Frenchman celebrated by saying: “For the money, just for that.”
Janvier’s economic problems
The scoreboard pitted him against the Chinese Zhang, but those words became popular and even led L’Equipe to interview him. Janvier didn’t hold back, he spoke about his lack of love for tennis and said that if he could go back, he would and would change sport. Words that weigh like boulders: “I have a disgust for tennis. When I was younger I didn’t think it was like that. If I had known I would never have played tennis. If I could get my life back I would play football or basketball.”
Why male and female tennis players wear white at Wimbledon: strict rule, blame it on sweat
Disillusioned also for economic reasons: “Some time ago I was ruined! Completely ruined. I worked 24 hours a day and ended the month negative 2000 or 3000 euros. I’m a minimum wage tennis player. I had to ask for a loan.” No has guaranteed 71 thousand euros.
The Frenchman mentions Zverev and Alcaraz and stings Musetti
In his fierce, disaffected and disillusioned tirade he then brought up absolute champions, who also live economically on another planet and Lorenzo Musetti: “When you are Zverev or Alcaraz it’s easy. Musetti says he is passionate about this sport. These guys make me laugh. You play tennis very well, but you haven’t vegetated, we gave you wild cards. All these guys didn’t go to the depths of Kazakhstan.”
