You always see people coming back to the sport, and I've always thought, 'Gosh, when you're done playing, wouldn't you just want to stay at home?

No. At the States we get no matches that are played in Europe on TV.

I couldn't imagine being from a country where all the pressure is on a particular player.

I was never a prodigy.

I'm not that interesting!

I wasn't a perfect thing at 17. I didn't have confidence. I was hunched over and real embarrassed, and I didn't want to be in the limelight. But it changed over time.

I did everything I could except win. I feel fine. I just played bad at a big time.
