In the tennis world, there weren't a whole lot of Asians playing. You see it a little bit more now. The same can really be said for basketball.

I think I could look back through the past few years at missed opportunities and stuff, but one thing I have learned is not to dwell on missed chances or times where you have failed.

I didn't have the ability to blow people off the court, so I needed my legs, my preparation and the ability to think on my feet.

I think when you've played at the level that I've played, anything outside the top 10 in certain aspects is just a number, unless you're obviously trying to get into tournaments and stuff.

You can work really hard, but if you're not training in the right way you're not going to improve and get to the level that you want to.

I realize that I'm in the twilight of my career.

If you quit once, it's so much easier to quit the second, third, fourth time.
