Well, there's no monkey on my back.

But I have been hitting for a week now and trying to get back into some sort of routine because I need to play well at tournaments.

"I know that I'm going to have to work hard, keep working hard, and not because of this victory think, "I'm back." I don't think like that. I'll definitely work hard. Things are not going to be easy. I might lose first round next week. You never know."

Athletes have a certain stubbornness that carries us through and makes us do things that people say we can't do.

Well, there's no monkey on my back.

When I was younger I used to be devastated if I would lose.

Physically, I feel extremely well, perhaps fitter than ever.
