Tennis has had a very positive impact on my life.
I played Mary Joe Fernandez in the semifinals. She was winning the first set. Second set was very close. I started to play this aggressive game. I think I surprised them.
For me retiring wasn't hard once I knew that that was the decision I was going to make.
Now I have the bravery to do fine things.
tennis is a 100-mph chess match.
The difficult part was to tell the world that I was finishing.
