Disse o Careca, depois do estrago que fez no
ranking:
“It’ll be nice to go and sit down and think about this one,” Slater said. “This will be a neat little tournament for my career. I’m a little bummed because I didn’t feel like I capitalized on the waves I had, and it was frustrating, but just to get that win was important. We had similar conditions to 1990 when I won out here, so it was pretty magical.”
E completou:
“Now I’ve almost got as many points as I had accrued last year,” Slater said. “I didn’t think I was that intensely focused this week, I felt calm and happy. We’ll see what happens in France. After this I could really capitalize on everything.”
Ou seja, voltou ao discurso que o levou a conquistar 8 canecos: o de "competir se divertindo".
Sei. Conta outra Careca! Tu não estavas conseguindo engolir um ano tão frustrante e tanta especulação sobre o teu possível abandono do Circuito.
E para mim ficou clara uma coisa: quando o Careca quer, ninguém pode com ele.
