Tennis has had a very positive impact on my life.

It came so soon and so fast. It's just overwhelming. Every time I think about it, I just can't believe it.

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

tennis is a 100-mph chess match.

Now I have the bravery to do fine things.

I was feeling a lot of confidence, so I wanted to take advantage of that and keep playing.

When I got to match point in the final I was afraid I'd be a little nervous, but I just said, You have to stay focused, just think about what you have to do.
