You can get the true essence of New Yorkers by just hanging out in Central Park

I try not to take myself too seriously. I like to have a good time.

I definitely think the European weather has more of a factor than the European clay. I think the European weather changes from week to week, I mean, last year it was sunny and hot and this week it's kind of playing tricks on us a little bit. I definitely think that is a factor.

There's no home team in tennis, no built-in fan base, so the players have to step up and do their fair share.

I'm not going to go run and hide because I'm catching some heat. I'm not going to stay at home and pout.

I don't have much interest in being on a senior tour. I don't think I retired so that I could be on tour.

I've become better at the net. I've got a 135 mph serve so I'd be stupid not to follow that in. Overall I'm a better player than I was last year.
