But to be fair, if you take players from my era to now, the game has changed and the players have many more shots. They use them differently than we did. The speed of the game has changed.

I just travel all the time. And I was just looking at the schedules now and starting the first week of October I will be every weekend with somebody at tournaments through Christmas. So it gets very difficult to just go away and not do that.

Tennis is not like other sports where the coach is hired by an independent entity, and that makes a huge difference in the dynamic.

Many times the players get in there and it's just about as well as they could have done, and other times they get in there and they favorites and they don't win.

Not winning at Wimbledon is not going to bother me forever.

People may say I developed an iron will, but what really happened is that I made myself much fitter. I think an iron will is always supported by fitness.

It's very nice to see when somebody who wanted to work hard and is willing to put the work in gets rewarded for it.
