How important it is for you to invest time smartly?

Time management advice from a travelling athlete

The key is to keep the focus high. To invest time in what your mind and body need is vital, both before a tournament and during regular training sessions. Preferring the smart way of travelling is key to reaching my destinations fast without any loss of time.

Getting a lot of sleep and even meditating when the high levels of stress require it, are also essential routines for me; in a way, investing on becoming productive is my way to be more efficient thus gaining time.

Where does the passion from tennis comes from?

Lucas lives "Passion into Profession"

As an individual sport, tennis requires a lot of mental and physical strength. At the end of the day, however, when you see that your job has brought you to travel the world, there is a very high sense of achievement which derives from the daily struggles.

I have always dreamt of being an athlete since I was young. Today, I feel fortunate to have the chance to practice every day as there is nothing more rewarding than seeing the concrete results of your hard work.

I feel lucky to have the chance to travel the world and appreciate new cultures, thanks to my profession.

How important is Monaco for you?

Why Lucas loves Monaco and his professional network

For as much as it is great to travel the world, I love coming back to my hometown. Monaco is where my family and my friends live and where I can be myself. Sometimes it is very important to have a break from tennis and I could not think about a better environment to switch off.

I am particularly grateful to my coach Guillaume Couillard and the entire Monte Carlo country club and Monaco’s Federation of tennis. Monaco rock, Maya Bay and le Larvotto are the places where I like to go with friends.
