Life is like a tennis game. You can't win without serving.

This is my career highlight. Getting to the fourth round in the U.S. Open in my first year in the U.S. Open and first year on the tour.

Always have the situation under control, even if losing. Never betray an inward sense of defeat.

There's no better stage than the U.S. Open for me

A wise person decides slowly but abides by these decisions.

...I spent many, many hours in...libraries. Libraries became courts of last resort, as it were.

It's an abnormal world I live in. I don't belong anywhere. It's like I'm floating down the middle. I'm never quite sure where I am.
