Now a lot has changed and I can separate a lot of things.

I'm happy with what I've done but it's a challenge to try to win more.

You have to block everything out and be extremely focused and be relaxed and mellow too.

Forget about tennis, I was scared to open my mouth. I didnt even feel worthy of saying something and not sounding stupid.

She [Serena Williams] played some great shots, but so did I, and that was the only difference.

I mean, I feel like just a new person completely.

Let me say that the path I did take for a brief period of my life was not of reckless drug use, hurting others, but it was a path of quiet rebellion, of a little experimentation of a darker side of my confusion in a confusing world, lost in the midst of finding my identity.
