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.

I feel like I have as good a shot as anybody out there and I have gotten close in the past, so why not have the attitude that I can come out and play great tennis and maybe even win this tournament.

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

For me, at the French Open, if I wasn't playing my match I was glued to CNN watching the events unfold.

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.

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.

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