David Ferrer admits that there is little attention in Spain on his Australian Open campaign but insists that he will battle just as hard to claim a first major title.

David Ferrer has insisted that he is not worried about a lack of attention from the Spanish media on his progress and is completely focused on performing at the Australian Open.

The fourth seed was in fine form on the opening day at Melbourne Park, completing a straight-sets win over Olivier Rochus in the first round.

Ferrer has admitted that the absence of Rafael Nadal means that there is little focus on the first Grand Slam of this season in his country but has insisted that he will carry on regardless.

He told reporters: "Of course Rafael is more important because he is the best Spanish player in history, but [attention-wise] there's nothing special.

"I am only focused on me, my tennis and my team at this moment.

"I always I try to do my best and to fight, this is my game."

The 30-year-old has made the semi-finals of a Grand Slam four times in his career but is still searching for a first major final.
