"The guy is hitting the ball pretty hard, pushing so much, putting a
lot of pressure to me. His forehand was working pretty well; his
backhand as well. He was returning pretty aggressive. It was difficult
for me to control the points...
I believe he played just like a regular match, and that's good for him
because he shows that he is a good player. He's going to be even
better. He still has some room to improve. That's the good thing for
him...
I believe he's going to be good on every surface, and that's also
good. He can really be a champion here.
I think he will have to play the way he's playing. He doesn't need to
change anything because he's able to win everybody. He's playing good
tennis. He's moving well. He really deserves to be there." - Alex
Corretja on Juan Carlos Ferrero after his loss in round 4 at Roland
Garros French Open 2000, June, 2000.

"Difficult to say. Ferrero is going to
be a huge match and for sure we going to be there forever, running all
around. It's going to be long rallies and it's going to be tough,
especially because he's 20 years old, you know, and the guy has a lot
of power. He's really good player." - Alex Corretja on who he
prefer to play in round 4 at Roland Garros French Open 2000,

"He's so good. He hits the
ball so hard and he is playing unbelievable. He's a marvellous player,
has got lots of power, strength, moves well on the court. He has to
improve his serve, but I'm sure he'll do it in the future. He's got a
good mental to play tennis, and I think he'll become one of the best
players." - Alex Corretja on Juan Carlos
Ferrero - April, 2000.

"Ferrero is not the typical Spaniard."
"I think there are going to be more rivalries, whether it be Federer,
Vinciguerra, these kinds of guys, Ferrero. I think there's a lot of
19, 20-year-olds coming up. It's good for tennis."

"Well, I think he played a very good tennis to be in the semifinal. He
played maybe enough to win today, too. He could be in the final. He's
going to be here for many more years. He didn't lost his chance, you
know, he's not going to have any other. I expect to play a tough
opponent. I knew he's going to play like this. I think he played close
to his best level, great confidence. Me, too. So was a good match for
both. I think we both have to go out and he push me close to my limit.
I was really had to do everything right to beat him." - Gustavo
Kuerten Juan Carlos Ferrero after his victory in the semifinals of the
Roland Garros French Open 2000, June, 2000.

"I said it in Barcelona (1999),
that this player had the potential to be a top ten. Time is giving me
the reason. His great advantage is that, although he's quite complete,
he still has much margin to improve" - Carlos Moya on Juan Carlos

"You know, I mean, the guy has more confidence, just kept on hitting.
Felt like he couldn't miss. It's just tough playing catch-up
tennis...I definitely thought he was a good player. I knew how he was
going to play. I think I was a little surprised by the amount of pace
he had on his shots. He had a lot of work on his shots. I was a little
surprised by that." - Mark Philippoussis on Juan Carlos Ferrero
after his loss in round 3 at Roland Garros French Open 2000, June,
2000.

"I would like to be a top Spanish player in the next five years, but
right now there are a lot of players playing, and it is going to be
difficult. I think that Juan Carlos (Ferrero) is a very good player
right now, and in the future he can be one of the best ten players.
If it is possible, I would like to stay with him." - 19 yr-old top
Spanish Junior player, Tommy Robredo on how he believes that it will
