ITST

How did you find out about ITST?
I found about it on Full Ace Tennis Simulator's official Discord.

Why did you join ITST?
Mainly for fun, in the end everywhere I compete that's my main goal, to enjoy, but obviously, if I can win, much better.

PERSONAL

Age:
18

Born:
Badajoz, Extremadura, Spain

Currently Reside:

Profession:
None (uni student)

GAMING

Story behind your Gamertag:
I started using it on 2016 I think, I used to have 'Nicolás2004' or 'Nicolas04_YT' as username on the Internet generally and I got bored of them, so I took inspiration of Spanish youtuber exsorz (https://www.youtube.com/user/exsorz) replacing 'exso' by my name, so it was 'nicorz'. After that it goes 'F104', but I had to register a different account after not receiving confirmation for 'nicorzF104' so I deleted the 04 (my year of birth) and kept F1 (for Formula 1, which I'm a big fan of).

How many hours do you usually spend playing video games in average and what game you are currently enjoying most:
Nowadays I don't play as much videogames as earlier, I tend to have streaks of playing a game for a week intensively and then I get bored of it, so voluntarily I play like 1-2 hours average per day and on weekends, especially on Saturdays, I play more since I'm the owner of a simracing league on which I'm also racing so I spend some more time training (although not much, just some 10-15 laps since if it was more, it would become 'overtraining' :D I don't really like taking much time on these things since as I said I play for fun).

After a tough loss, have you ever broken a gamepad, cursed God or beat your sibling:
Hahaha no, I use to be quite calm while playing and I use to repress my anger so other than getting angry whether if it was a mistake of mine or of someone else (mostly on racing games when I get crashed by other people).

PROFESSIONAL TENNIS

Favorite ATP player (current):
I really support 2010s players which were succesful (basically, the ones who were just a step behind Big Three) before they got severely injured and are now attempting comebacks, such as Wawrinka, Thiem, Cilic, del Potro, and especially Andy Murray, I really enjoy watching them play since I think the play offered by the Next Gen is way too far from the one they could deliver on their 'prime'. Still, no tennis player makes me enjoy as Nadal does, so Nadal is my final answer :)

Favorite ATP player (all-time):
To not repeat the one above, I'll say Federer. For me, he brought the sport to a new dimension and outside Spain he's much more influential than Nadal IMO. Elegance in all greatness.

Favorite WTA player (current):
I don't follow much WTA so I'll say Swiatek.

Favorite WTA player (all-time):
Navratilova. The fact that she was able to win Grand Slams until 2006, even if she only competed on doubles, is quite impressive.

Federer or Nadal:
I didn't follow tennis until 2012 or so, but after all I've seen, it's my countryman Rafa the one I'm standing with in this case.

Favorite tournament and surface:
Roland Garros and clay.
