I still have this image: I can't be controversial, I can't say things.

After being at the top, I don't think I could play senior tournaments, because you know how good you were. I don't know if I would enjoy that, being half of what I was.

Whatever your goal in life, be proud of every day that you are able to work in that direction.

Being famous before you've formed your personality, before you have that self-esteem, is dangerous.

Don’t let a first-set victory lead into a second-set slump

If you can react the same way to winning and losing, that's a big accomplishment. That quality is important because it stays with you the rest of your life, and there's going to be a life after tennis that's a lot longer than your tennis life.

Single-mindedness. I hate to say it because I don't think it's the best thing for developing a person, but the single-mindedness - just concentrating in the one area - that's what it takes to be a champion.
