Tennis has had a very positive impact on my life.

It's amazing, it doesn't feel like it has been 10 years since retirement.

There were so much affairs of me created by the media... of course I was not always a true single. I had some relations, once also to a famous pop star.

The difficult part was to tell the world that I was finishing.

I carried through well with my tennis. I got the respect by usage of the tennis racket.

I loved to play, I was competitive, I wanted to win, that was all I knew. In the first few years tennis is a game. Later, it becomes a job.

It was so easy to play tennis, so easy.
