I look at tennis as a bit of a platform to hopefully touch lives and encourage people.

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

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

It has been a difficult road this year, but still I look at every day as a new opportunity.

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.

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