What you feel doesn’t matter in the end; it’s what you do that makes you brave.

It has meant a lot to me to challenge the best players in the world and to beat them. And it means a lot to me to be out here and fighting for the title and, you know, it hurts not to win it.

Tennis is at an amazing time when you've got two of the best players ever to play the game. You can argue the two very best playing in the same generation. It's a rivalry I think that we've never seen in our sport.

It never seizes to amaze me how much I enjoy playing here and how much you fans have meant to me over the years.

The great part about tennis is you can't run out the clock.... As long as we were still playing, I had a chance.

I'm going to have to pick my shots and play great tennis.

Hitting the ball has never been my issue, so I can literally not pick up a racquet for two months and hit the ball, really, really nicely. I mean movement's always an issue.
