Nineteen of the Russian's 21 titles have been earned on hardcourt

"This championship is in honour of my child her name, because the maiden victory I got when my child my daughter was born was for her."

The player's retrieving approach and recurring emotional displays on court had caused observers to wonder if his capacity to perform at the elite level was concluded.
