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.

To win Grand Slams you have to be in the right frame of mind, the right physical shape.

I was an emotional basket case.

I just want to get to the level where I can say that that's my level, just try to play well, get up there.

Dreams do come true if you keep believing in yourself. Anything is possible.

You know, I'm confident before I go out and play a match that I know, you know, I've put in the work and like I feel confident that I am going to go out there and play well.

Yes, I made mistakes by rebelling, by acting out in confused ways.
