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

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.

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 see tendencies, I see body language.

I have lost a little bit of flexibility, but the doctors say with any kind of torn ligament it is not uncommon for the injury to take 16 months to be 100 percent healed.

I still have a belief and a faith that some great things are still going to happen in my career. If I didnt believe that, it makes no sense for me to be out there, and on top of that, I know this is a period of time that God wants me to persevere through.

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.
