The second time was in 2009, when I played Viktor Troicki in a friendly match. So I really miss those trips.

My thoughts are only for Banja Luka, I want to enjoy my time here. I have played a professional tennis for 20 years, I feel tired when I have to think about the next schedule, to plan everything.

As older, people prefer to live for the present. No one knows what will happen in the future, ”Nole said.
