When I'm frustrated that I'm not doing well in a tournament I cut my own hair, just lop it all off. I've probably made a right mess of it, but luckily I wear a cap when I play.

My girlfriend thinks I look like a reptile - it's not the best.

I've never felt nervous in front of big crowds and in big stadiums.

When I'm training in December, I have to eat like 6,000 calories a day to maintain my weight. It's a bit tiring.

It's not the end of the world to lose.

I was pretty young when I bought my first place, and at that time didn't really view it as an investment. After living there for a few years I decided to move out of London, so I decided to rent it out for a few years. Then, as the property market continued to rise, I made the decision to sell.

Obviously I would have loved to have won, but I have had a good run every match.
