There's not many firsts in my career, as I have been a part of many tournaments and fortunate enough to win many.

I learned English in one month. I told myself I should listen. In the next month I could talk to everyone. I was so happy because I could do one thing...I could talk.

I owe a lot to my parents.

I know you are reporters and I know this is your job, but, you know, take your note pads, take your pencils down, take your grunt-o-meters down, the fashion police, put everything away and just watch the match, you know, from just the fans' perspective. I seriously think that the quality of the match today was great.

I'm 17 years old and there are many great things ahead. If I don't win the U.S. Open this year, it's not going to be a disaster in my life.

My shoulder's not where I want it to be, but I'm doing a good job of monitoring it.

The more matches I play, the more confident I get.
