I actually became a Christian in my rookie year on tour when I was 16 years old.

Seeing the Olympics come to China made me want to get more involved.

I think Pete Sampras has really reached his peak. About the only thing he doesn't do is cook.

That's what really seems to be the more difficult aspect - to have the men break through and challenge the best players in the world.

Hard work is the only way to go. Strive to be the best you can be and remember that when you try your best, you can't ask any more from yourself, and people can't ask any more from you.

I am actually nondenominational.

For me, I think the Lord wanted me to win to put a smile on Chinese people's faces.
