 BUENOS AIRES, July 16 (Xinhua) -- Argentinean tennis star Juan Martin Del Potro, ranked 9th worldwide, said bringing home a medal from the London 2012 Olympic Games would be akin1 to scoring a Grand Slam win.

In an interview with local daily Clarin Monday, Del Potro said, "undoubtedly2, to win a medal would be a great achievement, a marvelous, beautiful and historic achievement ... considering the quality of my rivals. It would be almost like winning a Grand Slam. "Del Potro added he hoped to enjoy the summer games as "a unique experience," because "it's something that happens (only) every four years.""It would be fantastic to win a major title at the upcoming games," said Del Potro, but added "it will be very difficult because there are only three medals.""Those high in the ranking are the favorites, the ones with the most chances to win. My goal is to grab a medal from them," he said.
Del Potro will compete in Olympic singles and mixed doubles with fellow Argentinean Gisela Dulko.
The 23-year-old tennis player, born in Tandil in the east central province of Buenos Aires, has won 11 tournaments in his career.
