Ferreira's wife and son are back at the family home in northern California, after spending the new year on the sidelines in Adelaide. In an ideal world, they would be one big, travelling family. They are not.

Ferreira was, at times, accused of not always trying his hardest to win. However, his lengthy career at the top, playing through injuries and pain that hampered him, dispel this accusation. He was accused of being moody, but that is really an on-court reflection of his desire to win. Off the court he is an absolute delight, relaxed, charming and willing to give of his time.
